At 6'6, Hahn has not only been a giant on the course for the Badgers, but has been a key leader and teammate over his four years as a Badger.
Junior teammate Pete Kuhl tweeted his praises following the championships' conclusion Wednesday.
"Thankful for everything this guy did for Wisconsin Golf! Unbelievable golfer and ever better person! Very lucky to call you a friend Jordy" said Kuhl.
Nick Robinson, another junior teammate of Hahn's, also tweeted, "Couldn't happen to a better person. Thankful for everything he did for our program these past 4 years. So excited to see him tear up the professional ranks in the coming years. Love ya buddy."
The Badgers have found consistently brilliant play from their senior leader over four seasons. Hahn owns the best season stroke average in school history with a 71.68, a full stroke better than the previous record.
Hahn has 11 career top-10 finishes, earning two individual tournament victories this season, the most of any Badger in a single season in history.

Thoughts From Coach Burcin:
"He topped off a fantastic career with an outstanding test of golf this week. He was certainly deserving to go to the postseason and will go down as one of the greatest ever to play at Wisconsin."
