Nick Sabol knows what it's like to experience hall of fame honors. One of the best golfers to ever come out of Beaver County, Nick was a 2013 inductee into the Catawba College Sports Hall of Fame and a 2018 inductee into the South Atlantic Conference Hall of Fame and the Freedom Area Education Hall of Fame. Now Nick is being inducted into the Beaver County Sports Hall of Fame.

After graduating from Freedom in 1994, Nick embarked on a career in golf, first as a player and then as a golf pro/instructor. At Catawba, located in Salisbury, NC, Nick was a four-year member of the Indians' men's golf team. Considered one of the most accomplished golfers in Catawba history, Nick was a four-time All-SAC first-team selection, and in 1995 earned SAC Player of the Year and Freshman of the Year honors after leading Catawba to the SAC men's golf title and its first berth ever in the NCAA Division II National Tournament.

Individually, Nick was SAC tournament champion in 1995, posting the best round in Catawba history by a freshman or at a SAC tournament with a second-round 66. Nick was named a National Golf Coaches Association (NGCA) honorable mention All-American in 1995 and 1998 and was named NGCA Division II Freshman of the Year in 1995. During his college career, Nick won four tournaments and posted a career average of 75.33. Nick's best season came in 1998, when he posted a 74.32 average and advanced to the NCAA Division II National Championships as an individual.

After graduating from Catawba, Nick worked five years in North Carolina, first as an assistant pro at a country club, then as head pro at a public course. Then Nick decided to return to his roots and landed a job as an assistant at Fox Run Golf Course in North Sewickley Township, where he worked for the late Max Mesing, the Fox Run owner/pro who was a 2004 Beaver County Sports Hall of Fame inductee. Then Nick moved to Montour Heights County Club in Moon Township as an assistant pro under John Mazza, a 1995 inductee into the Beaver County Sports Hall of Fame.

In 2007, Nick played on the Hooters Tour, a developmental professional golf tour now known as the SwingThought Tour. A year later, Nick je-joined John Mazza for a brief stint as an assistant at Harmony Ridge Golf Course in Ambridge. Nick later gave lessons at The Club at Shadow Lakes in Hopewell and coached the Hopewell High School boys' team. Nick returned to Harmony Ridge in 2011 for a brief stint as head pro. In recent years, Nick has been a teaching pro at Rowan Road Driving Range in Cranberry Township.
