NORMAN, Okla. – The Big 12 Conference named three Sooner golfers to its 2011 Academic All-Big 12 Women's Golf Team Wednesday. Oklahoma senior Ellen Mueller was awarded first-team honors for the third year in a row while senior Sara Hemingway and junior Brooke Collins were named to the second team.
“At the University of Oklahoma, we take academics very seriously,” said OU head coach Veronique Drouin. “Every year the team comes up with academic goals that need to be met and we spend the season encouraging one another to meet those goals. These young women are a great example of what a true 'student-athlete' is.”
All three upperclassmen on the Sooner golf team received conference academic honors, an impressive feat that Drouin says is a demonstration of their leadership on a youth-laden squad.
“When half of our team is comprised of freshmen, there is a strong need for leadership from our upperclassmen,” said the OU head coach. “I'm so proud of our older girls for setting such a great example to our freshmen when it comes to excellence in the classroom and in all other aspects of being a champion. I hope our freshmen can continue this tradition of academic excellence when they become eligible to receive this award next season.”
To qualify, student-athletes must maintain a 3.00 GPA or higher, either cumulatively or over each of the two previous semesters, and must have participated in 60 percent of their team's scheduled contests. Freshmen and transfers are not eligible in their first year of academic residence. Senior student-athletes who have participated for a minimum of two years and meet all the criteria except percent of participation are also eligible. First-team members have maintained a 3.20 or better GPA, and the second team includes those who have a 3.00 to 3.19 GPA.
The Oklahoma women's golf program has produced at least three Academic All-Big 12 golfers in 14 of the conference's 15 seasons.
