The Mid-American Conference announced Wednesday that Kent State women's golfer Wad Phaewchimplee was named the Female Scholar Athlete of the Week for her excellence in the classroom and on the course for the week of April 19-25, as voted on by the conference's faculty athletic representatives.
Phaewchimplee was part of two Mid-American Conference record-setting performances over the weekend. The junior shot a 4-under, 68 on Day 2 for the lowest round in MAC Championships history. She also made the All-Tournament Team with a 4th-place individual finish, as Kent State won its 18th consecutive championship, the most consecutive championships by one school in any sport in MAC history.
