WAC honors Carroll grad
Rice freshman named league's golfer of week
From staff and correspondent reports
HOUSTON - Former Carroll High School standout Scott Phillips was named the Golfer of the Week in the Western Athletic Conference.
The Rice golfer becomes the second straight Owl freshman to earn the WAC honor. Ryan Morgan won the award following the first week of action.
Phillips led the Owls to a third-place finish at the Udamon Southwest Classic in Victoria last week. Phillips shot a season-best 70 in the final round to finish with a 2-under-par 214, good for a second-place finish. It was Phillips' first collegiate top-five finish.
Phillips and the Owls return to action on March 17 at the El Diablo Intercollegiate in Citrus Spring, Fla.
