Clemson’s Stephen Behr on Wednesday was named the recipient of the Award, given annually to a graduating senior who excels on the course as well as in the classroom and the community.

“This award is one of the biggest and best in college golf,” he said in a statement. “To me it is the most prestigious because the collegiate golfer who wins it must have the entire package, excelling in all areas that make being a student-athlete a challenge: playing in competition, staying competitive in the classroom and carrying onself with honesty, integrity and respect.”

A four-year starter, Behr leads the Tigers with a 71.
