NDSU golf student-athletes earn All-Academic Team honors

NDSU men’s and women’s golf had four Bison student-athletes named to the Summit League All-Academic Golf Teams, the league office announced May 26.

Lexi Geolat and Leah Skaar were named to the women’s team, while Nate Deziel and Jack Johnson were named to the men’s team.

Geolat earned Summit League All-Academic Team honors for the second time in her career after registering a 3.89 GPA as an undergraduate this year. She also graduated in May with a 3.90 GPA in biological sciences. The Lake City, Minnesota, native finished her career with a 78.73 average over five seasons, which ranks ninth in NDSU history.

Skaar was named to the Summit League All-Academic Team for the first time in her career and has a 4.0 GPA in leisure and recreational activities. She notched a team-best 76.50 average this season and posted a team-high four top 10 finishes.

Deziel, from East Grand Forks, Minnesota, earned his first Summit League All-Academic Team honor, with a 3.745 GPA in business, while claiming the Summit League Championship MVP honor after winning the tournament and setting several Summit League and NDSU golf records.

Johnson also received his first Summit League All-Academic Team honor after a season that included second team All-Summit League honors and a 3.867 GPA in engineering.

Student-athletes are nominated by their respective sports information directors and then voted on by a panel composed of faculty athletics representatives from each university and SIDs.

To be considered for the academic all-league golf team, a student-athlete must have at least a 3.3 cumulative career grade-point average, completed at least one full academic year at the current institution and participated in 50 percent of their team's competitions.
