“I am very proud of these three tremendous representatives of our program for earning this well-deserved honor,” said Josey Stender, University of Wyoming Head Women’s Golf Coach. “All three young women exemplify what we strive for in our program, competitive success in the classroom and on the golf course. This recognition for them is a credit to their determination and organization considering the amount of travel within our sport.”
