The fall portion of the college golf season has come to a close, which means it's time to recognize players who are setting themselves apart as frontrunners in men's college golf over the past two and a half months.
The Haskins Award presented by Stifel honors the player of the year in men’s college golf, as selected by college golfers, coaches and members of the college golf media. Players on the Haskins Award Watch List were selected by a panel of college golf media members. They are listed alphabetically.
