The honor is given to the Most Outstanding Player in Collegiate Golf.
STATESBORO – Georgia Southern's Steven Fisk has been named one of 10 finalists for the Haskins Award, presented by Stifel.
Created by the Haskins Commission, the Fred Haskins Award presented by Stifel is presented to the "Most Outstanding Collegiate Golfer of the Year." Known as the "Heisman of Golf," the Haskins Award has been named in honor of Fred Haskins, who dedicated his career as Head Professional at the Country Club of Columbus in teaching junior golfers the art of competitive golf.
Fisk won six tournaments this season, including his second Sun Belt Championship, becoming the second player in league history to win the conference championship twice. The senior finished in the top-10 eight times and has placed in the top-25 in all 11 events he has played in. He tied for sixth at the NCAA Stanford Regional Wednesday to lead the Eagles to their first appearance in the NCAA Championship Finals since 2010.
Fisk passed Eagle great Jodie Mudd (1978-82) for the school record in career victories with nine, and 24 of his 32 rounds played this season have been par or better. He shot a course and tournament record 61 in the second round of the Sun Belt Championship, one shy of his own school record, and was named Sun Belt Golfer of the Week three times.
The Haskins Award winner is annually voted on by Division I players, coaches, and select golf media, thus truly making it the players' award. Haskins Award winners over the years include such notables as Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Luke Donald and Justin Thomas.
The Eagles open play in the NCAA Finals Friday, May 24.
