SEATTLE – Washington men's golf's Finn Koelle has been named to the Fred Haskins Award Fall Watch List, the Haskins Foundation announced today.
Â
Koelle joins Illinois' Max Herendeen as the representatives from the Big Ten Conference on the 25-person watch list.
Â
Koelle is currently ranked fourth in the Clippd individual rankings at the end of the fall season and No. 32 in the World Amateur Golf Rankings® that came out on Nov. 11. Over his 12 rounds thus far, Koelle has a 70.3 scoring average with 58.3% of his rounds being under par.
Â
He also finished in the Top 10 in three events – Sahalee Players Championship, Windon Memorial Classic and the Saint Mary's Invitational. At the Sahalee Players Championship, Koelle won his first collegiate event with a walk-off hole-in-one on the 54th hole to win the tournament by two strokes over some of the best players in the nation.
Â
This past summer, Koelle also competed at the BMW International Open on the DP World Tour, where he earned low amateur honors with his T30 placement.
Â
Beginning in 1971, the Fred Haskins Award is annually given to the top male U.S. collegiate D1 golfer as voted on by players, coaches, members of the college golf media, and past Haskins Award winners. Named in honor of Fred Haskins, the award is managed by the Haskins Foundation to acknowledge the top male golfer at the end of the season and to match the ANNIKA Award, which acknowledges the top female Division I collegiate golfer.
Â
No. 18 Washington returns to action in the New Year at the Southwestern Invitational at North Ranch Country Club in Westlake Village, Calif., Jan. 25 and 26, 2027.
