CAL STATE EAST BAY at 2025 NCAA DIVISION II MEN'S GOLF CHAMPIONSHIPS

NORMAN, Okla. - Just days after clinching a spot in next week's 2025 NCAA Division II Men's Golf Championships, Cooper Groshart and Easton Hether were named to the NCAA Division II PING All-West Region Team, as announced by the Golf Coaches Association of America (GCAA).

On Sunday evening inside Pioneer Gymnasium, Cal State East Bay hosted its Pioneer Athletic Awards Banquet, for the first time named 'The Pios'. Student-athletes from Cal State East Bay were honored for athletic, academic and community impact. Men's soccer goalkeeper and 2024-25 SAAC President Kelekolio Mateo Jr. was the emcee for the special event.

When Dr. Summer Jackson stepped into the role of Faculty Athletics Representative (FAR) at Cal State East Bay in 2023, it was more than a professional milestone—it was a full-circle moment. A former Division I swimmer at the University of Arkansas and a proud inductee into the Sequim (Washington) Hall of Fame's inaugural class for her swimming accomplishments, Dr. Jackson brought with her not only an impressive academic background but a deeply personal connection to the student-athlete journey.

ALISO VIEJO, Calif. - Less than a week removed from winning the CCAA Men's Golf Championships presented by Under Armour, three members of the Cal State East Bay men's golf team garnered All-CCAA recognition. Oscar Blomqvist and Easton Hether were named All-CCAA and Ananjan Kaushik was named All-CCAA Honorable Mention.
