NORMAN – Northeastern State men's golf earned recognition by the Golf Coaches Association of America (GCAA) Wednesday for their work in the classroom as an All-Academic Team. 

The RiverHawks are one of 32 teams in NCAA Division II to be named for having an overall program GPA above a 3.0.  Within the MIAA they are one of two programs to earn the classification from the GCAA.  

Northeastern State, along with Oral Roberts, are the two lone programs to represent Oklahoma on the GCAA list across all affiliations. 

A total of 193 schools submitted GPA's of 3.0 or above, with 32 of those schools earning Presidents Special Recognition Honors, finishing with a team GPA of 3.5 and above.

To be eligible for GCAA Outstanding Team Academic honors a college or university must submit GPAs for each player on their official squad list for the academic year.
