Youngstown State fifth-year senior golfer Bryan Kordupel was named Second-Team All-Horizon League when the conference office announced its postseason awards on Friday.

 
Kordupel earns all-league honors for the first time in his accomplished five-year career. The Boardman, Ohio, native has also been selected to the Horizon League All-Academic Team each of the last two seasons. The Penguins have now had at least one player garner all-league recognition in each of the last four seasons that league awards have been handed out.
 
Kordupel enjoyed the best season of his career as a fifth-year senior in 2022-23. He competed in all 11 tournaments and 32 rounds with a team and career-best 72.9 strokes-per-round average. Kordupel's 72.9 scoring average is tied for the second-lowest single-season mark in program history. It is the lowest single-season scoring average by a Penguin since Brandon Pluchinsky set the school record of 72.4 in 2015-16. Kordupel carded a career-low, seven-under-par 64 at NKU's The Jewell on April 10. The performance is tied for the second-lowest 18-hole score in YSU history.
 
Kordupel earned four top-five finishes and seven top-10 finishes while being YSU's top finisher in 10 of 11 events during the 2022-23 season. The fifth-year senior tied for third at the Carpetbagger Classic with a two-round score of 144 (71-73). For his efforts, he was named Horizon League Golfer of the Week on March 23. He became the first Penguin to earn weekly league honors since Pluchinsky in April of 2016.
 
Kordupel tied for fifth at the Tom Tontimonia Invitational with a three-round score of 215 (72-75-68). He placed fifth at the Bucknell Invitational with a three-round 212 (71-71-70) while tying for fifth at the Wright State Invitational with a three-round 224 (73-78-73).
 
Kordupel tied for eighth at the Don Benbow Butler Spring Invitational with a career-best three-round score of 210 (72-70-68). The performance is tied for the ninth-lowest 54-hole score in program history. He tied for ninth at NKU's The Jewell with a three-round total of 214 (76-64-74). He finished his career by placing ninth at the Horizon League Championships with a three-round 219 (74-75-70). Kordupel also tied for 17th at the Valpo Fall Invitational with a three-round score of 221 (71-78-72).
 
Kordupel competed in all 36 tournaments and 98 rounds that YSU played over the past four seasons. He participated in a total of 44 tournaments and 121 rounds during his collegiate career. Kordupel's 121 rounds played are tied for fifth in program history while his 74.9 career scoring average is tied for the fourth-lowest mark by a Penguin since 2000.
