BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - Women's golfer Sydney Snodgrass was named the Conference USA Women's Golfer of the Week, the league announced on Wednesday.
The freshman from Harrisville, W. Va. carded UAB's best individual finish of fifth after shooting an 8-over par, 224 at the Chris Banister Golf Classic hosted by Jacksonville State. She becomes the first UAB women's golfer to win C-USA Golfer of the Week since Caitlin Watts earned the honor on April 4, 2012.
Snodgrass turned in a 3-over par, 75 in her first collegiate action to begin the tournament on Sunday and came back with rounds of 74 and 75 to help record the top-five finish and help lead the Blazers to a tie for sixth overall in the team standings.
Snodgrass and the Blazers will be back on the course next weekend for the Bearcat Classic on Oct. 6-7 in Cincinnati, Ohio.
