This morning the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) announced the 2022 Academic All-America® men's at-large teams for all college divisions. For his efforts in the classroom and on the course, Justin McCoy of the men's golf team was named a 2022 CoSIDA Third Team Academic All-America® for Division III.

McCoy was one of just 45 student-athletes from Division III to be named an At-Large Academic All-America®. The men's at-large teams are made up of student-athletes from fencing, golf, gymnastics, ice hockey, lacrosse, rifle, skiing, swimming, tennis, volleyball, water polo, and wrestling. McCoy was one of just two golfers in all of Division III to earn the award.

McCoy, a sophomore golfer out of Savoy, Illinois, is a finance major with a 4.00-grade point average. He finished the 2021-22 men's golf season with a 73.62 scoring average through 26 rounds of golf. He finished the season with four top 10 finishes including a top-five finish in both the Wittenberg Classic and the Music City Shootout. Following the conclusion of the season, McCoy was named Second Team All-SLIAC. He was also named to the SLIAC Spring All-Academic Team.

McCoy is the first Webster University men's golfer to be named a CoSIDA Academic All-America®.
