Grace Kilcrease Standout at Oklahoma State University
Grace Kilcrease, a graduate of Springdale Har-Ber High School in Springdale, Arkansas, has established herself as one of the top women’s golfers in NCAA Division I. According to Clippd, she is currently ranked as the No. 21 Division I golfer as a junior at Oklahoma State University.
Before getting into college golf, she was a four-time all-conference and all-state selection at Springdale Har-Ber High School, earned AJGA Rolex Junior Honorable Mention All-America honors in 2021, was elected as the three-time Democrat-Gazette Girls Golfer of the Year for Northwest Arkansas, and led her team to Class 6A state titles in 2020 and 2021.
Before Oklahoma State, she played college golf at Tulsa, where she achieved the following accomplishments:

Her career at Oklahoma State has taken off, as she won her very first tournament as a Cowgirl. In her second tournament, she broke the school record for the lowest round by firing a 63 in round two of the Schooner Fall Classic. She finished in the top 10 in all five tournaments this fall, becoming the first Cowgirl to secure five straight top-10 finishes since Isabella Fierro in the 2020-21 season.
