BRIDGEPORT, W.Va. – Freshman men's golfer Milo Thim was named the MEC Men's Golfer of the Week the league announced on Wednesday afternoon.

Thim, a native of Sweden, put together a pair of outstanding performances to begin his collegiate career. Thim finished third in the Wheeling Fall Invitational, finishing 2-under in the two-round event at Belmont Hills Country Club in St. Clairsville, Ohio. Thim opened with a 2-under 69 and followed that with a 71. He then won this week's UC Invitational, which was held at Berry Hills Country Club in Charleston, West Virginia. Thim put together back-to-back 67s at the UC Invitational — each round at 3-under — and then closed out the three-round event with a 71 to beat Wilmington (DE) golfer Noah Wallace for medalist honors.

On the women's side University of Charleston junior Lucia Martin was named the MEC Women's Golfer of the Week after her impressive first-place finish at the UC Invitational firing off an impressive 1-under 70, which is the lowest round ever shot by a Golden Eagles women's golfer. The UC Invitational victory was Martin's first event of the season after she was one of six student-athletes to earn All-MEC first team status a year ago.
