PROVIDENCE, R.I. (SMU) - SMU's Lindsey McCurdy has been named the American Athletic Conference Women's Golf Player of the Month for September, the conference announced today.
McCurdy had an exceptional start to her junior season, as she helped her team to a first place finish at the Marilynn Smith/Sunflower Invitational. The junior finished as the top player overall after carding a final round 66.
Her 75-73-66, 214, was tied for the third lowest 54-hole score in the tournament's history. It was McCurdy's first tournament victory of her collegiate career.
The Mustang followed that up with a solid performance at the East & West Match Play Challenge. McCurdy finished stroke play shooting a 75-70, 145, through two rounds.
McCurdy would play even better in the match play portion of the tournament finishing undefeated in two matches. The Mustang defeated Wisconsin's Tess Hackworthy, 1-Up. The junior then downed Penn State's Jackie Rogowicz in her final round of match play, 2 and 0.
McCurdy and the Mustangs will be back on the course on Oct. 19, when they take part in the Betsy Rawls Longhorn Invitational in Austin, Texas.
