Western Kentucky sophomore Emily Alexander was named the Conference USA Women's Golfer of the Week on Wednesday after leading the Lady Toppers to the team title at the Morehead State Citrus Spring Challenge.
The weekly honor is the first of Alexander's collegiate career and the first for WKU this season. Alexander, a Glasgow native, is the first Lady Topper to receive the weekly award since Ellinor Haag on March 12, 2015.
Alexander turned in her best 54-hole performance as a Lady Topper at the Citrus Spring Challenge in Sorrento, Fla., posting a three-round total of 221 (70-76-75) at Red Tail Golf Club.
