DAYTON/NORMAN, OK – The Wright State golf team has been named a 2024-25 PLATFORM Golf Team Academic Award recipient, announced by the Golf Coaches Association of America on Tuesday afternoon.
 
A GCAA-record 292 schools across six divisions earned a PLATFORM Golf Team Academic Award, however, the Raiders were one of only 75 NCAA Division I programs to receive Presidents Special Recognition for having an average team GPA of 3.5 or above. Wright State tallied a cumulative 3.57 GPA last year, a mark that rose to a 3.78 team GPA during the spring semester while in their championship season.
 
Last week, Timmy Hollenbeck and Shane Ochs were among the 556 NCAA Division I athletes from 190 schools who earned 2024-25 Cobalt Golf All-America Scholar honors, announced by the GCAA.
 
In addition to their work in the classroom, the Raiders captured their ninth Horizon League Championship in Florida last spring, the second-most all-time in the Horizon League, while Wright State has now won four team HL championships in the last six seasons with a pair of second-place finishes in the two other years. The Raiders finished with six top-five finishes in 12 total tournaments last season spanning the fall and spring schedule, highlighted by three-straight team titles in April – at The Jewell, Wright State Invitational and Horizon League Championship.
