NORMAN, Okla. – For the third year in a row, junior Elliot Parker has been honored with a spot on the Division III PING All-America Men's Golf Team, as selected by the Golf Coaches Association of America (GCAA).
 
Parker was one of just 50 golfers nation-wide who were named to the team. He captured honorable mention recognition after earning third-team accolades during each of the past two seasons.
 
Parker also garnered his third consecutive all-region honor last month following another stellar campaign on the links. He posted a team-leading 71.6 over 24 rounds and finished 29th in the final Division III Clippd rankings. Parker won six of his 12 events while finishing in the top-10 all but twice, including a third-place showing at the Landmark Conference Championships. By virtue of his top-six finish, he earned First Team All-Landmark honors for the third straight season and helped lead the Rangers to the team title and an automatic berth in the NCAA Division III Championships.
 
In one of his top performances, Parker shot a season-low 67 in the opening round of the Golden Oaks Shootout, where he fired a school record for 36 holes, winning the event with a 9-under-par 135 (67-68). He also won The Melee with a 142 (-2), the DeSales Invitational with a 68 (-7), the Ursinus Spring Awakening with a 71 (-1), and the Conquer the Island tournament with an 82 (E).
 
 As a team, Parker and the Rangers won seven of their 12 events, averaged a school-record 297.5 per round, and shot the lowest scores in team history for both 18 (284) and 36 (574) holes.
