Casper natives Nicole Klungness, Caitlyn Skavdahl earn academic honor

Kelly Walsh graduate Nicole Klungness and Natrona County alumnae Caitlyn Skavdahl were both named to the Women's Golf Coaches Association Scholar All-America team recently.

This marks the third time Skavdahl, a senior-to-be at the University of Wyoming, has earned the prestigious award while Klungness, who just completed her freshman season at Black Hills State University, is the first such recipient from the school.

To be eligible for the award, golfers have to maintain a GPA of 3.5 or better and have participated in at least 50 percent of their schools rounds for the season.

Both Skavdahl and Klungness are former state champions as well as playing on state championship teams.
