ROCKLIN, Calif. — Three Warriors earned All-PacWest Conference Teams during the 2025-26 season, highlighting another strong year for Jessup University golf in the program's second season competing at the NCAA Division II level. One selection came on the men's side, while two Warriors were named to the All-PacWest teams on the women's side.

For the men's team, freshman Jacobus Brakkee earned Third Team All-PacWest honors following a breakout spring season. Brakkee finished the year ranked No. 349 nationally and No. 47 in the West Region while posting an adjusted scoring average of 73.7 across 33 rounds. His season was highlighted by a runner-up finish at the Dominican Spring Invite and a third-place finish at the PacWest Conference Championship, earning him a spot in the NCAA Division II West/South Central Regional. With the selection, Brakkee became the first Warrior golfer in the NCAA era to compete at a regional.

Throughout the spring, Brakkee established himself as one of the top golfers in the conference, recording six Top-25 finishes in eight events, including four tournaments at even par or better. His consistent play sparked a rise of more than 400 spots in the national rankings over the course of the spring and played a major role in the continued growth of the Warriors' men's golf program.

On the women's side, senior Jessica Gray also earned Third Team All-PacWest honors following another strong campaign for the Warriors. The former GSAC Champion recorded two Top-5 finishes during the 2025-26 season, highlighted by a third-place finish at the 2026 Women's Palm Valley Classic and a fourth-place showing at The Big Freeze hosted at Richmond Golf Club. Gray closed out the year ranked No. 301 nationally and No. 87 in the West Region while posting a 78.6 scoring average.

A Rocklin native, Gray concluded her collegiate career as one of the most consistent players in program history. Over all four years of competition with the Warriors, she earned all-conference recognition while helping guide the transition from NAIA to NCAA Division II.

Rounding out the list of honorees was junior Julianne Canda, who earned Second Team All-PacWest Conference honors after a consistent 2025-26 campaign. Canda finished the season ranked No. 272 nationally and No. 82 in the West Region while posting a 77.8 scoring average throughout the year. Canda's top finish came at the 2025 RJGA Shootout at Estrella, where she placed sixth overall against a highly competitive field.

While her season featured multiple standout performances, Canda's consistency ultimately separated her from the rest. She recorded four Top-10 finishes throughout the season and finished inside the top half of the field in every event. Through steady play from start to finish, Canda established herself as one of the most reliable performers in the PacWest Conference and a key piece of the Warriors' success throughout the season.

With both Canda and Brakkee set to return next season, the Warriors will bring back two of the conference's most consistent performers as both programs continue building momentum within the PacWest. Meanwhile, senior Jessica Gray closes the chapter on an impressive collegiate career that helped lay the foundation for Jessup's transition into NCAA Division II competition. Together, the three all-conference selections reflect the continued growth and bright future of Jessup golf.
