WICHITA, Kan. – Another outstanding year on the green and in the classroom has landed six Wichita State women's golfers on the Women's Golf Coaches Association (WGCA) 2022-23 All-American Scholar list.
Seniors
Megan Lucas and
Kenni Henson, junior
Mar Vidal, sophomore
Sarah Lawson, and freshmen
Brooklyn Benn and
Mackenzie Wilson, were all named as WGCA Scholar Athletes when the honors list was announced on Thursday afternoon. These six student-athletes were recognized for their work in the classroom this past season.
Earning a spot on the WGCA All-American Scholar Team is not something that is easily accomplished, as the minimum cumulative GPA needed by an athlete to be selected is 3.50.
This is the third straight season for Lucas, Henson, and Vidal all receiving All-American Scholar honors. It is the second consecutive season with a scholar award for the redshirt sophomore Lawson.
