SIUE Women’s Golfers are WGCA All-American Scholars
Five SIUE women’s golfers have been honored as All-American Scholars as announced by the Women’s Golf Coaches Association (WGCA). Madison Frerking (Blue Springs, Mo.), Alison Gorman (Rockford), Molly Marcum (Leroy), Brittney Jostes (St. Charles, Mo.), and Ashton Stair (Milton, Wis.) were honored for their academic performance.
Student-athletes must have a cumulative grade point average of at least a 3.5 and play in at least 50 percent of the team’s matches to be recognized as All-American Scholars.
“The WGCA All-American Scholar award is a goal of our team each year,” SIUE Director of Golf Derrick Brown said. “Coach (Lindsay) Wandrey and I are very proud of our five recipients. They are model student-athletes who work very hard in the classroom and are very deserving of this award.”
For Marcum and Stair, this year marks their third-consecutive honor. The award is the second straight for Gorman.
Frerking and Jostes are business majors. Gorman is a nursing major. Marcum is an English and mass communications double-major. Stair recently received her degree in exercise science.
The Cougars’ five selections are the most for the program and are among 28 total golfers recognized from eight Ohio Valley Conference schools.
