Andrew Cohen is one of the top golfers in Bucknell history, and he helped keep the program’s run of success going following the graduation of another Hall-of-Famer in Charlie Waddell. Cohen was part of two Patriot League championship teams, he made two NCAA Regionals appearances, and he posted four individual tournament wins and 18 top-10 finishes, including 15 in his final 22 career events.

Cohen finished in the top 10 at the Patriot League Championship all four years, giving him four all-conference medals, and that run was highlighted by his league title as a junior in 2009. That year Cohen shattered the Patriot League Championship scoring record with rounds of 71-68-69 at West Point to lift the Bison to their third team crown in four years.

Cohen was named the Golf Week Division I National Player of the Week after a stretch in which he completed 90 consecutive holes in 3-under par. In five fall events in his senior year, he finished 3rd-1st-2nd-3rd-4th, and then in the spring he posted three more top-10s, including a win at the Lafayette Invitational where he closed with a 6-under 66. That established a new school record for strokes under par in a round.

Cohen broke Waddell’s school record with a 72.4 fall scoring average and a 73.2 mark over a full season, and he tied Waddell’s record with the four tournament wins. Cohen was later named to the Patriot League 25th Anniversary Team.
