Men's golf earns American Athletic Conference honors

PROVIDENCE, R.I. – The University of Memphis men's golf team continued its impressive late-season run Wednesday.

Blake Smart was named American Athletic Conference Coach of the Year, while Bradley Bawden and Chase Harris earned spots on the all-conference team.

Smart becomes the first from the UofM to win Coach of the Year honors since Grant Robbins in 2012.

Smart, in his fifth season with the program, led the UofM to its first AAC title last month, a victory that sends the Tigers into the NCAA Championships in two weeks.
