WOMEN’S GOLF
Junior Elizabeth Prior was named Mountain West golfer of the month for October, fueled by her medalist performance in the Las Vegas Collegiate Showdown, in which the Surrey, England, native carded a 16-under-par 200 to win by 10 strokes.
Prior’s second-round 66 tied for the fourth-lowest single-round score in program history, and her final score tied for the lowest three-round score in program history.
She sunk a tournament-high 19 birdies with just three bogeys. The victory was the second of Prior’s collegiate career.
