Edholm Tabbed 2024-25 Canisius Male Athlete of the Year

Canisius senior golfer Ryan Edholm has been selected as the 2024-25 Canisius Male Athlete of the Year, athletic department officials announced on Friday.

Edholm was chosen after a fan vote conducted on GoGriffs.com. The other finalists were Kyle Haskins (hockey), Trent Rumley (baseball), Ely Sidibe (men's soccer), Alexis Simard (men's lacrosse) and Sam Vidal (swimming and diving). He is the first member of the golf program to win this honor, which is presented annually by the athletic department, and serves as the highest individual honor a student-athlete at Canisius can receive. 

A native of Tonawanda, N.Y., Edholm was an All-MAAC First Team selection, becoming just the fourth golfer in program history to multiple All-MAAC accolades during his career.

He finished tied for sixth at the 2025 MAAC Championships, posting a one-under-par total of 215 over the three-day event. Edholm's 215 total at the MAAC Championship was the lowest score for a Canisius golfer at the event since the tournament format moved to 54 holes in 2002.

During the 2024-25 season, Edholm took part in all 10 events, fashioning a team-low 72.35 stroke average. He finished in the top 10 of five of his 10 tournaments played, highlighted by a pair of top three results.

Edholm carded his sixth career round in the 60s with a season-low 68 in the second round of the 2024 Colonel Shootout. He turned in a one-under-par total of 143 (71-72) to finish third in the Little Three Championship (Sept. 17) and claimed a share of ninth place with a 36-hole total of even par 144 (72-72) in the N.Y./Pa. Quad Match.
