Dartmouth earned three all-conference selections for the first time since 1970 after a stellar showing at the conference championship event. The Ivy League named the top five finishers at the championship first-team selections and the next five second-team honorees.

Kimche secured Dartmouth's best individual performance at the Ivy League Championship since 2016 to clinch a first-team selection. The sophomore finished the event at 3-over par, securing a fourth-place finish in a field of 33 competitors. Kimche finishes the season shooting with the second-best average vs. par (+2.00) and finished the 2022-23 season with three top-five finishes.

Turner picked up an eighth-place finish to earn second-team All-Ivy honors. Dartmouth's senior co-captain led the Big Green throughout the season, finishing the year shooting +1.62 against par. He closed the season with seven top-25 finishes and claimed top-10 positions at Dartmouth's final three events of the season. Turner was also selected as an Academic All-Ivy selection following a strong year on the course and in the classroom.

Gu displayed his consistency during the Ivy League Men's Championship in Greenwich, Connecticut. The junior secured his first top-10 finish of the season at the biggest event of the season, finishing one stroke behind Turner to earn a ninth-place finish. Gu recorded scores of 75-73-75-223 on a tough course at the Stanwich Club to earn his first postseason honor.
