The junior golfer finished in a tie for sixth place following the conclusion of the Fall PAC Championships, having shot a total score of 151 (+7) through 36 holes. This marks his second Academic All-District honor.

The Smith brothers and Swedish each represented the wrestling program.
 
C. Smith currently holds a 3.72 GPA as an education major. In his first full season on the mat, he posted a 23-5 record. Smith finished as the PAC 157-pound champion and took third at NCAA Regionals to advance to the NCAA National Championships.
