BUIES CREEK, N.C. - After claiming her second career individual
title and leading Campbell to a runner-up finish at the Edwin
Watts/Kiawah Island Classic, Sarah Bejgrowicz of Campbell
University has been named Atlantic Sun Conference women's golfer of
the week.
The senior from Lancaster, Pa., shot even-par 216 (69-71-76) to
lead the 172-player field and help Campbell earn its best team
finish of the 2010-11 season.
Bejgrowicz' opening round 69 marked her lowest 18-hole score of the
year, and came just one stroke shy of her career low.
Atlantic Coast Conference member Miami (296-297-295-888) won team
honors at the Kiawah Classic, nine strokes ahead of Campbell
(299-301-296-897) in the 33-school event. No.-29 Florida
International (298-303-300-901) finished third in the team
standings, two strokes ahead of Western Carolina
(297-304-302-903). Host College of Charleston (305-299-306-910),
Nebraska (307-302-301-910) and Akron (305-303-302-910) tied for
5th.
Bejgrowicz had 8 birdies over the 54-hole event and posted her
third-straight top-10 individual finish. She now has 11 collegiate
top-10 performances, including a victory in the 2009 Jacksonville
Spring Invitational.
She lowered her season stroke average to 75.6. The 2010 2nd-team
A-Sun all-conference performer tied for 9th at the LPGA
International/Xavier Invitational and was 10th at the Palmetto
Intercollegiate last October.
Campbell continues its spring season Mar. 6-8 at the Barefoot at
the Beach event in Myrtle Beach, S.C.
