Megan Welch Named Prairie Farms Athlete of the Month

Senior Megan Welch of the women's golf team is the Prairie Farms Bradley Athlete of the Month, earning the honor after a fan vote for the month of October.

Welch helped lead the Braves during the fall campaign, posting a 74.67 stroke average – which is good for second on BU. She peaked during the season's second month when she posted a team-best 73.67 stroke average in two tournaments and now has a streak of seven-consecutive rounds of 75 or better.

Highlighting her performance during the month was posting the lowest 54-hole score of her Bradley career at the Little Rock Golf Classic (220).
