April 12, 2010 | Women's Golf
CHARLOTTE, N.C. - Gardner-Webb junior Courtney Meyer was named to the 2010 Big South Women's Golf All-Academic Team, which was released tonight, Sunday, April 11, on the eve of the 2010 Big South Women's Golf Championship presented by Musco Sports Lighting.
Meyer, who is majoring in Middle Grades Education with an emphasis
in Science, has posted a 3.48 cumulative grade point average during
her time at Gardner-Webb University. Meyer, who has missed most of
the 2010 Spring Season for Coach Tee Burton's squad due to a hand
injury, has played in four events on the year, turning in a 2009
Fall Season stroke average of 76.25. The lone upperclassman on the
entire GWU roster, Meyer led the Lady Bulldogs with a fourth-place
finish at the 2009 Boscobel Intercollegiate and with a ninth-place
finish at the 2009 Great Smokies Women's Intercollegiate this
fall. Meyer, who made the Big South All-Conference Team last year,
turned in a low round of 72, even par, at the Great Smokies Women's
Intercollegiate Tournament.
Each school is permitted one representative and must have at least
a 3.0 cumulative grade point average and be of at least sophomore
standing (both academically and athletically) to be nominated.
Meanwhile, one individual from the All-Academic Team will be voted
the Women's Golf Scholar-Athlete of the Year by the Big South's
Sports Information Directors.
The 2010 Big South Women's Golf Championship is being contested at
The Patriot Golf Club at Grand Harbor in Ninety-Six, S.C., and
begins Monday, April 12 with the first round beginning at 8:00am.
The 54-hole event continues Tuesday, April 13 and concludes
