TROY, Alabama – Troy University's Phillip Brennan has been named to the Capital One Academic All-America At-Large Third Team, the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) announced Thursday.
Brennan becomes the 10th Troy student-athlete to earn Capital One Academic All-America honors (14 different awards) and the first to do so on the at-large team. The at-large pool of student-athletes is by far the largest among the CoSIDA All-America teams as it includes student-athletes from fencing, golf, gymnastics, ice hockey, lacrosse, rifle, skiing, swimming, tennis, volleyball, water polo and wrestling.
A native of Mobile, Ala., Brennan graduated in May Summa Cum Laude with a perfect 4.0 GPA in mathematics and a minor in physical science. Brennan earned the Navy Health Professions scholarship and will be attending medical school in the fall. Additionally, Brennan received the award for having the highest GPA among graduating male student-athletes at Troy.
On the course, Brennan posted a 74.21 stroke average and helped lead the Trojans to an at-large berth into the NCAA Regionals and a No. 35 national ranking at one point during the season. He was second among the Trojans with seven rounds under par and with four rounds in the 60s during the season.
