LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga. - Junior Cheyne Kendall of Schreiner University has been named the SCAC Men's Golfer of the Week after leading the Mountaineers to a team victory at the Schreiner University Spring Shootout - which was held Monday and Tuesday - at Comanche Trace.
SCAC MEN'S GOLFER OF THE
WEEK
Tournaments played from Wednesday, Feb. 26 through Tuesday, March
4
CHEYNE KENDALL OF SCHREINER UNIVERSITY, a junior from Deer Park, Texas, has been selected the SCAC Men's Golfer-of-the-Week for tournaments played Wednesday, February 26 through Tuesday, March 4.
Kendall won his third collegiate
tournament, shooting back-to-back rounds of 70, to lead Schreiner
to the team victory at the Schreiner Spring Shootout at Comanche
Trace. The Mountaineers took the top three individual spots
in the tournament.
Going into the day with a five shot lead, Schreiner shot a 290 to
win by 15 strokes over a trio of teams made up of 17th-ranked
Concordia-TX, 30th-ranked Mary Hardin-Baylor and Centenary College
which all shot 600 over 36 holes of play.
Schreiner head coach Ron Macosko had this to say
about Kendall's performance, "We hate to
talk about individual performances but you have to be really happy
for Cheyne. He's played really good golf all year but just hasn't
been rewarded. In the past, he might press or get ahead of himself,
but he's really taken a step forward this year. This time around,
he put his head down and just kept working. He busted out in a big
way and everyone is happy to see that."
The 23rd-ranked Mountaineers next play in three weeks at the
JDG/UT-Dallas Spring Classic in Garland, Texas.
