Sadie Kabisch awarded Brian Groves Memorial Scholarship

In honor of former Cowley College golfer Brian Groves, Cowley College sophomore Sadie Kabisch was named this year’s Brian Groves Memorial Scholarship recipient during the 28th annual Tiger Skins/Brian Groves Memorial Golf Tournament Saturday at Ark City Great Life Golf & Fitness.

Brian Groves’ father, Mike, was on hand to present Kabisch with the award. Kabisch is a member of the No. 5-ranked Lady Tiger volleyball team and is majoring in physical therapy. She has a grade point average of 3.60.

Brian Groves (Class of 1998) was a member of the Tiger golf team before moving on to Southwestern College in Winfield. He was tragically killed in a one-vehicle accident in 2002.

Kabisch came to Cowley from Henrietta, TX, where she was an All-State volleyball player. As a freshman at Cowley, she played in 139 sets, recording 180 digs at 1.29 digs per set. She has recorded double-digit digs in each of Cowley’s first two victories to open the 2023 season.

“This is a big honor, and I am grateful to be chosen,” Kabisch said. “I love it here at Cowley; it is like a family.”

Although there were several worthy candidates for the Brian Groves Memorial Scholarship, in the end, the school could not go wrong with selecting Sadie Kabisch.
