SUNRIVER, Ore. -
Jenny Suh, the reigning Southern Conference Player of the Year and member of the Furman women's golf team, was named to the National Golf Coaches Association All-America Second Team, it was announced Friday night at the annual NGCA Awards Banquet, held in conjunction with the Division I National Championship in Sunriver, Ore.
Suh, a sophomore from Fairfax, Va., played in every tournament of the year for the Lady Paladins, recording six top 10 finishes and victories in the Lady Gamecock Invitational and the Southern Conference Championships. An honorable mention All-American as a freshman, Suh improved her stroke average from 74.17 last season to 73.94 in her sophomore campaign. In the 2004 Collegiate Match Play Tournament, Suh went undefeated with victories over Jordan Craig of Texas, Ashley Bickerton of Washington, and 2005 NCAA Individual Champion Anna Grzebien of Duke.
Suh's most recent recognition is the 18th All-America citation awarded to members of the Furman women's golf team since Greenville's own Sherri Turner won the program's first All-America award in 1979.
