SAN BRUNO, Calif. — Kendra Dalton, Rose Huang and Annie Yang were named to the 2017-18 West Coast Conference Women’s Golf All-Academic Team, the league announced Friday.
Dalton, along with Kristen Le of Santa Clara and Pepperdine’s Katherine Zhu, each made their third-straight and final team appearance. Yang and San Francisco’s Kimberly Liu posted the highest GPAs turned in by women’s golf student-athletes in 2017-18, logging perfect 4.0 GPAs.
Dalton logged six top-20 finishes during the 2017-18 season and received medalist honors twice, once at the Edean Ihlanfeldt Invitational and again at The Rebel Beach. Huang placed in the top 20 in nine of BYU's ten tournaments this season. The junior recorded a first-place finish at the 2018 WCC Golf Championships. Yang competed in eight of Cougars' 10 events in the 2017-18 campaign and recorded a top-25 finish at the Bruzzy Challenge.
At the conclusion of each athletic season, the WCC selects an all-academic squad for each WCC-sponsored sport. To be considered, a student-athlete must maintain at least a 3.20 cumulative grade point average, while also being a significant contributor to her team.
