NORMAN, Okla. – The Illinois State men's golf team was recently named a Golf Coaches Association of America (GCAA) Outstanding Team Academic Award recipient, announced by the GCAA on Thursday afternoon.
By virtue of having greater than a 3.0 team grade point average, the Redbirds were named as one of the program's All-Academic Teams.
Last season the Redbirds advanced to the NCAA Regional for the first time since the 2007 season and ISU placed inside of the top-10 in the strong field in Bath, Michigan.
The team had a stroke average of 292.4, the fourth-lowest in program history, with each of the top six team marks coming since 2016-17.
