Campbell's Fredric Sundberg Named To A-Sun Men's Golf All-Conference Second Team

BUIES CREEK, N.C. – Campbell University sophomore Fredric Sundberg has been chosen to the 2006 Atlantic Sun men's golf all-conference second team in voting by league head coaches.

A native of Gothenburg, Sweden, Sundberg followed up his 2005 A-Sun Freshman of the Year campaign in 2005-06 by producing six, top-five individual finishes in 10 tournaments. He opened the year with his second collegiate tournament win at the Towson Fall Invitational, where he shot a career-low 66 in the opening round.

Sundberg added a runner-up finish at the Charleston Southern Spring Kick-Off and tied for third at the Sam Houston State BearKat Classic. He placed fourth at both the East Carolina Pirate Fall Invitational and Campbell's Hargrove B. Davis Spring Intercollegiate, while tying for fifth at the Wyoming Cowboy Classic.

For the year, Sundberg ranked eighth in the A-Sun in stroke average (72.7) and 139th nationally in adjusted score vs. par, according to Golfstat.

"Freddie's been our leader all along," said Campbell head coach John Crooks. "Except for a dropped putt here or made putt there, he certainly could have been a first-team all-conference selection. We're just so happy with what he does on the golf course, in the classroom, and how he represents our university."

Jacksonville's Jim Taketa received the Coach of the Year nod from his peers after leading the Dolphins to a surprising victory in the Atlantic Sun Championship at Eagle Creek Golf Club on April 19. North Florida's Jeff Dennis took home Freshman of the Year accolades.

A-Sun Player of the Year Rhys Davies from East Tennessee State posted a league-best 70.9 scoring average and captured a pair of individual titles as well as finishing in the top-10 nine times in 13 events. He is currently ranked fourth in the GolfStat Cup Standings and fifth nationally in the Golfweek/Sagarin Performance Index.
