Bowling Green, Ohio - Three members of the Bowling Green State University women's golf team have been recognized by the National Golf Coaches Association (NGCA) as Academic All-Americans. Those student-athletes are senior Kari Evans (Louisville, Ky.), senior Jenny Schnipke (Kalida, Ohio), and sophomore Amanda Schroeder (Kalida, Ohio).
There were 318 women's collegiate golfers recognized with this prestigious honor. The criteria for selection to the All-American Scholar Team are some of the most stringent of all college athletics. The minimum cumulative GPA is 3.50 (3.40 for Seniors in Division II and III) and student-athletes must have competed in at least 66% of the college's regularly scheduled competitive rounds during the 2003-04 season. Freshmen are not eligible.
It marks the third time for Schnipke and second time for Evans to be named NGCA Academic All-Americans.
* Evans finished the spring semester with a 3.79 GPA in integrated language arts. She finished tied for 38th at the MAC Championships with a 54-hole score of 258. Her season-low round of 78 came in the first tournament of the year where she ended with a 166 over 36 holes at the Cardinal Classic. She finished the year with a 87.64 average of 25 rounds.
* Schnipke finished the spring semester with a 3.51 GPA as a exercise specialist major. She registered the best Falcon finish ever at a Mid-American Conference Championship when she finished third this past May with a three-round score of 226 (74-74-78), 11 shots off the winner. Schnipke was named All-MAC Second Team for the third time in her career. The Kalida, Ohio had two runner-up finishes in the 2003-04 season and two third-place showings.
