RE:         Academic All-State honoree from Catholic Central High School

The Golf Coaches Association of Wisconsin (GCAW) is pleased to announce that Sean Kramer  of Catholic Central High School is an Academic All-State honoree for the boys’ golf season.  Students are submitted by GCAW member coaches if they meet the following criteria: 1) A cumulative grade point average of at least 3.25, 2) participation in at least 75% of their team’s varsity matches, and 3) are at least a sophomore in high school.   Sean is a student-athlete who serves as a great example to others, proving that academic and athletic successes are not mutually exclusive.

The coaches association is proud to announce a record 365 boys from 126 high schools have been honored this year for maintaining high academic standards in the classroom while competing in varsity golf.  In fact, the average cumulative GPA of this year’s honorees is an exceptional 3.720.  Student’s with a GPA of 3.75 or higher have been noted with ‘High Honors’, while those with a GPA of 3.25-3.749 were acknowledged in the ‘Honor’ category.  Sean’s commitment to academics resulted in a designation of Honors.

The GCAW was formed by high school golf coaches in 1986 to help build Wisconsin's reputation for developing quality junior players by promoting golf in our schools and communities. Besides honoring both boys and girls who succeed as student athletes, the association also selects an annual All-State team for boys and girls based on their playing ability.
