By Alexa Anderson, Sports Information Director for Golf at Brigham Young University
SAN BRUNO, Calif. — Senior Patrick Fishburn was named to the 2017-18 West Coast Conference Men’s Golf All-Academic Honorable Mention Team, the league announced Friday.
Fishburn posted a GPA of 3.35 in sociology during the fall 2017 semester. The senior placed in the top 20 in eight of the Cougars’ 10 tournaments and placed in the top 5 in four events during the 2017-18 campaign. Fishburn shot a season low 65 at the Pacific Invitational while claiming medalist honors.
At the conclusion of each athletic season, the WCC selects an all-academic squad for each WCC-sponsored sport. To be considered, a student-athlete must maintain at least a 3.20 cumulative grade point average, while also being a significant contributor to his team.
