Skidmore College Athletics

From 1990 to 1994, Brion competed on the College's nationally ranked golf team, which finished eighth, 10th, 12th, and fourth in the National Collegiate Athletic Association Championships, respectively. 

Named Skidmore Rookie of the Year in '91, he rose to the rank of team captain and first position in '93 and '94, earning him the title of team MVP. Brion was selected to the Golf Coaches Association of America All-American Team for four consecutive years (1991-94) and was the first Skidmore golfer to be honored as a GCAA All-American Scholar in his junior year, a distinction he reclaimed in 1994. During his tenure at Skidmore, Brion captured seven collegiate tournament championships, placing second in five of them and third in another five, for a total of 17 top-three finishes.  

Brion's remarkable roster of accomplishments does not end on the links. Twice honored as an GCAA All-American Scholar-Athlete ('93-'94), he was also named Skidmore's Senior Athlete of the Year, a prestigious citation based on academic standing and athletic achievement that is given to just one scholar-athlete during his or her four-year career.
