Four student-athletes from the University of Missouri men's golf team have been named Cobalt Golf All-America Scholars. The honorees are Dagbjartur Sigurbrandsson, Brock Snyder, Mattias Varjun, and Veikka Viskari.
The recognition is given to college golfers who meet specific criteria. To be considered for the award, nominees must be at least sophomores, play in at least half of their team's competitive rounds, maintain a stroke average below 76.0, and hold a cumulative career grade-point average of at least 3.2.
This marks the first time each of these Missouri golfers has received the All-America Scholar honor.
Sigurbrandsson completed his final season with a 74.86 stroke average over 21 rounds and achieved an eighth-place finish at the Canadian Collegiate Invitational.
Snyder posted a 74.06 stroke average in his first full year as part of the main lineup and finished in the top 20 on four occasions.
Varjun recorded a 73.60 stroke average during his graduate year. He won his first collegiate title at the Tiger Intercollegiate by four strokes and was named SEC Golfer of the Week.
Viskari finished his sophomore season with a 73.58 stroke average and earned three top-20 finishes while competing for Missouri for the first time.
