Former Harding University golfer joins Cajuns as assistant coach
LAFAYETTE – Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns Men's Golf Coach Theo Sliman announced on Friday the addition of Jake Croshaw as an assistant coach for the 2024-25 season.
Â
Croshaw, a native of Loughborough, England, spent the 2023-24 season as a graduate assistant at his alma mater, Harding University (Ark.), where he played on the Bison golf team for five seasons and was a two-time graduate of the University.
Â
"We are very excited to have Coach Croshaw join our program," said Sliman. "His passion for developing young men as well as his competitive nature was eminent during our interviews. His energy and knowledge of the game will be a big asset to our team. We are eager to get the fast-approaching season started."
Â
During his playing career (2018-23) at Harding, Croshaw was a two-time Srixon/Cleveland Golf All-America Scholar and three-time Academic All-Great American Conference recipient. Croshaw competed in 33 events during his career while ranking among the school career leaders in scoring average (75.56), rounds played (89), par or better rounds (22), winning percentage (55.1) and birdies (221).
Â
"It is a pleasure to be the new men's assistant coach for the Ragin Cajuns." Croshaw said. "I'm really looking forward to working with the team and learning how we can develop them as both golfers and as men and hoping that we can bring home some (championship) silverware."
Â
Croshaw earned his bachelor's degree in accounting from Harding in 2023 and master's in business administration in 2024.
Â
Louisiana will officially open its 2024-25 season when it competes in Louisiana Tech's Argent Financial Classic on Sept. 8-10 at Squire Creek Country Club in Choudrant.
