2017 CCAA Men’s Golf All-Canadians

2017 CCAA Men’s Golf All-Canadians

The Canadian Collegiate Athletic Association is proud to announce the 2017 CCAA Men's Golf All-Canadians.

The student-athletes, who are selected by their conference based on performance and contribution to the sport and their team, were honoured at a banquet during the 2017 PING CCAA Golf National Championships, hosted by Durham College in Oshawa, ON.

Here are the 2017 Men's Golf All-Canadians:

  

Daniel Campbell

 

Ben Whiton

 

UFV Cascades

 

UFV Cascades

In his first season with the Cascades, Campbell won two of the PACWEST’s four tournaments en route to the conference’s overall men’s individual title. In addition to his victories at the VIU and UFV Invitationals, he also paced UFV to the PACWEST team championship. Campbell joined the Cascades this season as a transfer from Skagit Valley College and has fit in seamlessly.

 

Whiton put together a rookie season to remember, winning the PACWEST men’s individual silver medal. He placed second at the UFV Invitational and third at the Camosun Invitational. Whiton also helped the Cascades men’s team win the PACWEST overall title. He is an upbeat presence on the UFV roster and has been a great addition to the team as a rookie.


   

Braden Clarkson

 

Michael Harrison

 

Augustana Vikings

 

Augustana Vikings

Clarkson was a member of the Vikings team that earned a silver medal at the ACAC Championships. He placed fourth overall individually in Alberta. He has shown tremendous improvement in his game during his three years at Augustana and has developed into a team leader. Clarkson assisted in the training and development at Our Lady of Mount Pleasant School’s golf academy in Camrose, AB.

 

Harrison, now a two-time CCAA All-Canadian, captured individual gold at the ACAC Championships and led the Vikings to a second-place finish in team play. He was also victorious at the ACAC South Regional and tied for second at the ACAC North Regional. Harrison’s dedication and desire to improve have vaulted him up the ACAC leaderboards. He has also assisted at the junior high golf academy.


   

Conner Watt

 

Cameron Brennan

 

Humber Hawks

 

Humber Hawks

Watt was the individual gold medalist at the OCAA Championships and had first-place finishes at Mercyhurst and Georgian. He also led the Hawks to the conference team title. The third-year student-athlete is one of the most gentlemanly and respected players on the course, but one that plays with a fire inside that drives him to want to put in his best performance for the team and himself.

 

In his second season, Brennan’s game continued to elevate with the Hawks as he earned an individual silver medal at the OCAA Championships. His scoring in all three rounds at the conference championships was key in Humber’s gold-medal team victory. In incredibly windy conditions at the OCAA Championships, Brennan battled his way through by playing intelligent golf within his skill set.


   

Charles Eric Bélanger

 

David Tweddell

 

St. Lawrence Lions

 

St. Lawrence Lions

Bélanger was crowned the RSEQ individual champion and led the Lions to the conference team title as well. He shot a season-best round of 68 on the first day of the conference championships. Bélanger was also victorious at the Graham Cooke Junior Invitational. His consistency has improved this season along with his short game, which has helped him in high-pressure situations.

 

Tweddell earned an individual silver medal in the RSEQ with a five-round average score of 71. He led the Lions to five conference team victories by an average margin of 10 strokes. Tweddell, who began playing competitively only three years ago, has shown plenty of potential at Champlain St. Lawrence. His game continues to make giant strides as he shredded off five strokes per round this season.


   

Corey McMinniman

 

Sebastien Peterson

 

UNB Varsity Reds

 

UNB Varsity Reds

McMinniman captured the individual title at the ACAA Championships with a two-day total of 151. He led the Varsity Reds to team victories at all three ACAA events, including the conference championships. McMinniman always has a good attitude on and off the course and sets a great example for his teammates. He has a competitive edge that allows him to thrive under pressure.

 

Peterson was a key contributor in UNB’s sweep of the team events in the ACAA. He was also the runner-up individually at the ACAA Championships. As a senior member of the team, Peterson embraced a leadership role this season with the Varsity Reds. He leads by example on and off the course with his practice and study habits as well as his preparation for competition.
