Western Kentucky junior Stuart Easton’s best career performance last weekend earned him Conference USA Men’s Golfer of the Week honors, as announced Wednesday by the league office.
Easton – an Ayrshire, Scotland, native – fired a 7-under 209 (70-69-70) total across three rounds of play to claim third place outright Sunday in Wyoming’s Southern Dunes Invitational in Maricopa, Ariz.
Both the third-place finish and the 209 tally were the best marks of Easton’s career. The 209 score was the top 54-hole effort by a Hilltopper this season and the best in the program since Billy Tom Sargent’s 208 at last year’s Kenny Perry Invitational.
