STEPHANIE MEADOW PLAYER OF WEEK FOR SECOND WEEK

FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF ALABAMA WEBSITE
TUSCALOOSA, Alabama - Alabama freshman Stephanie Meadow was selected as the SEC (South East Conference) Women's Golfer of the Week the conference office announced on Thursday after medalist honors at the Allstate Sugar Bowl Intercollegiate.
It is the second straight SEC Golfer of the Week recognition for Meadow, who was the co-winner following her win in Puerto Rico.
Meadow's most recent win at the Allstate Sugar Bowl Intercollegiate came against one of the deepest fields in collegiate golf. She fired rounds of 72, 66 and 73 to finish at 5-under-par 211, edging LSU's Megan McChrystal by one shot.
She was selected as the Golfweek Player of the Week after her performance that helped the top-ranked Crimson Tide finish second to second-ranked Southern California in a field that consisted of seven of the nation's top-10 teams.
Meadow is ranked 16th in the latest Golfweek/Sagarin Performance Index and 18th in the Golfstat Cup as a true freshman. Her 72.0 scoring average for the season ranks third on the team and fourth in the Southeastern Conference. She has a 70.5 stroke average in her two tournament wins this spring.
Meadow and her team-mates return to action on Friday (March 11) at the LSU Tiger Golf Classic at the University Club in Baton Rouge, Louisiana
