Two Men's Golfers Recognized Nationally for Academic Success

NORMAN, Okla.Jack Avrit and Matt McCarty of Santa Clara men's golf were recognized for their performance in the classroom.

Avrit and McCarty were named Srixon/Cleveland Golf All-America Scholars by the Golf Coaches Association of America (GCAA).

To be eligible, an individual must be a sophomore, junior or senior academically with a stroke-average under 76.0 in Division I and a minimum cumulative grade-point average of 3.20. The participation requirement for 2019-20 was reduced to 40 percent of the team's tournaments due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

McCarty, a senior who will return to the team in the fall, competed in all seven events during 2019-20 with top 10 showings in three. He posted a 71.19 scoring average, first on the team.

Arvit, a junior, participated in four events, all in the spring, and posted a 73.42 scoring average.

Those two Broncos were among the three named to the 2019-20 West Coast Conference All-Academic team.

The team was also recognized by the GCAA for having a GPA of at least 3.0. The Broncos were at 3.28 during 2019-20.
