In a successful season for Simon Fraser University golf, the women’s team found itself the recipient of a handful of awards as announced by the Great Northwest Athletic Conference last week.
SFU senior Michelle Waters and junior Emily Leung were named to the All-GNAC first team. Waters compiled a 79.2 stroke average through 19 rounds this year, and placed eighth overall at the GNAC championships. Leung, the 2017 GNAC Player of the Year, stood second in the conference at 78 strokes per round and was one of just two players to play in all 10 Clan tournaments, with four top-10 finishes.
The team, vice-captained by New Westminster’s Breanna Croxen, also saw freshman Estee Leung capture the GNAC Freshman of the Year award, on the heels of being named a GNAC player of the week in March. At the GNAC championships, Estee Leung shot an opening round-leading even-par 71, the only round of par or better in the tournament.
