Chen earns honor for the second-year in a row
CARLSBAD, Calif.– St. John's men's golf standout Peicheng Chen added to his list of accolades on Saturday morning after being named to 2024 PING All-Northeast Region Team, which was announced by the Golf Coaches Association of America (GCAA) on Saturday.
The junior earns the honor for the second consecutive year as players from 83 schools across six regions were honored by the organization.
Chen just wrapped up a stellar junior season for the Red Storm in 2023-24 tallying a team-best finish in nine events. The Beijing, China native recorded a 72.7 stroke average for the year and logged five top-10 finishes.
The All-BIG EAST Second Team selection really heated up in April starting off the month with a runner-up finish and season-low three-round score of 8-under at the Southern Invitational. He was named BIG EAST Golfer of the Week for that performance on April 4. He continued his strong form at the Robert Kepler Intercollegiate hosted by Ohio State, tallying a top-five finish in a loaded field.
Chen then moved onto the postseason at the conference tournament and put together an impressive final round climbing back from 3-over on the first two holes to captured the BIG EAST Individual Championship. He advanced onto NCAA Regionals where he competed against the nation's best at University of Texas Golf Club and finished T-50th place.
