Trio of Men's Golfers Named GCAA All-American Scholars - Elon University Athletics

NORMAN, Okla. – Elon University men's golfers Josef Dransfeld, Max Ferrari and Graham Hutchinson have been named 2020-21 Srixon/Cleveland Golf All-American Scholars, as announced by the Golf Coaches Association of America (GCAA) last week.

To be eligible for All-American Scholar status, an individual must be a sophomore, junior or senior both academically and athletically in NCAA Division I, II, II and the NAIA or receiving their Associate's Degree and in their last year of athletic eligibility in the NJCAA. Additionally, they must participate in 40 percent of their team's competitive rounds, have a stroke average under 76.0 in Division I, under 78.0 in Division II, under 79.0 in Division III, under 78.0 in the NAIA, and under 77.0 in NJCAA. The recipient must also maintain a minimum cumulative career grade-point average of 3.2 and must be of high moral character and be in good standing at his college or university.

This marks the second year in a row all three have been named All-American Scholars after earning the distinction in 2020. This is also the third time in program history the Phoenix has had three honorees in one season.

Dransfeld, a rising senior from Huntington, W.Va., played in all five tournaments this past spring and owned an average score of 75.47 with a +3.67 score versus par. He contributed 11-of-15 rounds towards the team score and his best finish was at the Ross Collegiate Classic on March 8-9, where he and Ferrari led the maroon and gold with a six-over par 22 to finish tied for 16th. The effort helped the Phoenix place fourth in the field of 13 teams. A finance major, he maintained a 3.45 GPA for the year.

A native of Framingham, Mass., Ferrari led the Phoenix in average score (73.60) and score versus par (+1.80). He had 14-of-15 rounds counted towards the team score. In addition to tying for 16th at the Ross Collegiate Classic, he tied for 22nd with a plus-12 225 at the Pinehurst Intercollegiate on March 12-14 and was the team's top performer at the Stitch Intercollegiate on April 9-10 as he tied for 27th with a three-under 213.
