The Valparaiso University men’s golf program continued its standard of academic excellence as the Golf Coaches Association of America (GCAA) released its 2022-23 All-America Scholars on Wednesday.

Rising senior Mason Bonn (Sherwood, Ore. / Sherwood), junior Anthony Delisanti (Sanborn, N.Y. / Niagara Wheatfield), fifth-year senior Caleb VanArragon (Blaine, Minn. / Blaine) and graduated senior Yianni Kostouros (Crown Point, Ind. / Crown Point [Ball State]) all earned the honor this year.

To be eligible for All-America Scholar nomination, an individual must be a sophomore, junior or senior both academically and athletically. In addition, they must participate in 50 percent of their team’s competitive rounds, have a stroke average under 76.0 and maintain a minimum cumulative career grade-point average of 3.2. A recipient must also be of high moral character and be in good standing at his college or university.

These honors add to a long list of achievements both academically and athletically during a special season for Valpo men’s golf. The 2022-23 campaign saw the program shatter the modern single-season record for team scoring average while boasting a runner-up finish in the Missouri Valley Conference Championship for the second straight season. VanArragon (at-large) and Delisanti (automatic) both earned NCAA Regional appearances, while the team reached postseason play as part of the National Golf Invitational (NGI).
