Crockett finished among the top 35 golfers individually in seven of Nebraska's 11 tournaments, including a career-best second-place finish with a school-record-tying 203 (-10) at the Hawkeye Invitational (April 13-14). He put together impressive rounds of 67, 68 and 68 on a par-71, 7,197-yard layout at the Finkbine Golf Course in Iowa City, trailing only Wisconsin's Cameron Huss, who fired a 201 (-12).

Crockett's performance at Iowa was his third top-15 finish of the season, including a tie for third at 209 (-7) at the Everett Buick GMC Classic (Oct. 16-17). He closed the fall campaign with back-to-back rounds of 68 after opening with a 73 on the par-72, 7,115-yard layout of the Chenal Country Club in Little Rock, Ark.

Crockett, who missed the 2023 spring season, opened the fall as Nebraska's No. 5 finisher with a 222 (+12) in a tie for 60th at the Visit Knoxville Collegiate (Sept. 8-10). He carded rounds of 77, 73 and 72 on the par-70, 7,200-yard layout at the Tennessee National Golf Club.

He followed with Nebraska's No. 2 individual finish at the Bearcat Invitational (Sept. 18-19), tying for 30th overall with a 216 (+3) that included consistent rounds of 71, 73 and 72 on the par-71, 7,279-yard layout of the Coldstream Country Club in Cincinnati.

A two-time NJCAA All-American at Hutchinson (Kan.) Community College before joining the Huskers prior to the 2022-23 season, Crockett set the Husker single-season stroke average record (71.82) over 11 fall rounds in 2022.

Junior (2022-23)
Crockett made an immediate impact on Nebraska’s lineup in the fall of 2022. The two-time NJCAA All-American at Hutchinson CC produced a Nebraska record 71.82 stroke average through 11 fall rounds, including a third-place finish at the Purdue Fall Invitational. 

Before Nebraska
A two-time NJCAA All-American in 2021 and 2022 and one of just 24 players across all divisions of college golf to earn a spot on the 2021 All-Nicklaus Team, Crockett led Hutchinson CC to back-to-back NJCAA Division I Championships. He was the NJCAA individual runner-up as a freshman in 2021 while powering the Blue Dragons to their first NJCAA men’s golf title. He added a third-team All-America award as a sophomore.

A finalist for the NJCAA Mickelson Most Outstanding Freshman Award in 2021, Crockett was a two-time NJCAA District III/Region VI champion, a two-time first-team All-Region VI and first-team All-Jayhawk Conference honoree in 2021 and 2022. He produced a 71.6 stroke average as a freshman, including 17 rounds under par.

Crockett also won an individual tournament title at the Jayhawk Conference No. 2, as a precursor to his Jayhawk Conference runner-up performance. He closed the Jayhawk No. 2 Tournament with a three-round total of 198 (-15) that included a second-round 62 (-9).

The son of Simon and Tracey Crockett, Harry was born Jan. 20, 2002. Harry’s older brother, Charlie, was a teammate on Hutchinson’s national championship team in 2021.
