MEN'S GOLF
Daniel Settecerri can make his way around a golf course often in sub-par fashion. He is superb in the classroom, too.
The Hope College golfer recently graduated from Hope College with a degree in biology and a 3.99 grade point average. He also has been voted to the Academic All-America NCAA Division At-Large Teams, as selected by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA).
A three-time All-MIAA golfer, Settecerri joins a prestigious group of
Hope CoSIDA Academic All-Americans
as a second-team selection in the at-large category.
“I am so honored to receive this award,” Settecerri said. “I think it’s a testament to the quality of the academics and athletics there are at Hope. I’m so faithfully supported by mentors, family members, teammates, coaches, athletic trainers and friends. Their encouragement along the way is what makes this award so meaningful and so special to me.”
Despite the cancellation of spring competition during COVID-19, CoSIDA continued its sponsorship of the Academic All-America awards program. Student-athletes were selected based on career statistics.
CoSIDA has been recognizing student-athletes since 1952 with awards in soccer, volleyball, football, basketball, baseball, softball, track and field/cross country and an at-large program that includes sports for which the NCAA sponsors a championship.
