This 2020-21 campaign saw the Cowboys advance to the NCAA semifinals for the second consecutive championship and capture their second Big 12 title in a row.
In 2018-19, Darr helped guide the Oklahoma State golf team to its third consecutive top-five NCAA finish and its second consecutive No. 1 ranking to conclude the year.
The Cowboys captured six tournament titles, including the Big 12 title, and swept the national player of the year honors with Viktor Hovland being named the Ben Hogan Award recipient, while Matthew Wolff garnered the Fred Haskins Award and the Jack Nicklaus Award.
The 2017-18 season, the third in his return to the program, will go down as one of the most memorable in the storied history of Cowboy golf. OSU captured its 11th NCAA title while matching the program's single-season marks for victories (10) and consecutive victories (7).
