The College of St. Scholastica proudly announces that Connor O'Hara (Hermantown, Minn./Hermantown HS) has been named a 2024‑25 NCAA Division III Cobalt Golf All‑America Scholar, becoming the first ever Saints golfer to receive this prestigious honor.

O'Hara's selection marks a milestone in Saints athletics history. His recognition stands as a testament to the combination of academic and athletic prowess of what it means to be a Saint. He joins the company of 202 Division III honorees across 78 schools for the 2024‑25 season.

To earn Cobalt Golf All‑America Scholar honors, student-athletes must meet stringent standards:

  • Be at minimum a sophomore, academically and athletically, or in final eligibility with an associate's degree (NJCAA).

  • Maintain a stroke average under 79.0 in Division III.

  • Hold a cumulative GPA of at least 3.2.

  • Exhibit high moral character and be in good institutional standing.

Connor's achievements checked every box. As a sophomore, he played in all fifteen of the Saints rounds, comfortably passing the 50% threshold. His stroke average of 75.9 over those rounds placed him among the top performers in the MIAC. Academically, he maintained and excelled in his studies to the tune of a perfect 4.00 GPA. Off the course, Connor continues to exemplify character and sportsmanship that reflect the core values of St. Scholastica.
