CORAL SPRINGS, Fla. (June 30, 2020) – Alyza Flores,
Elle Kocourkova and
Emma Reyes were among the more than 1,400 women's collegiate golfers recognized as WGCA All-American Scholars by the Women's Golf Coaches Association. To qualify for the All-American Scholar Team, a golfer must hold a cumulative grade point average of at least 3.50.
Kocourkova earned All-American Scholar accolades for the second consecutive year, while Flores and Reyes were honored the first time.
Kocourkova, a hotel & restaurant management major, ranked third on the team this past season with a stroke average of 76.00 across seven tournaments. The rising junior posted two top 10 individual finishes, including a tie for eighth at the New Mexico State Aggie Invitational in the fall, and was named Big Sky All-Conference honorable mention for the second time in her career.
In her final collegiate season, Reyes posted her lowest scoring average of her career at 76.65 while playing in all eight tournaments during the 2019-20 season. After a seven-over par 223 at the Pat Bradley Invitational, Reyes was named the Big Sky Golfer of the Week for the first time in her career. Reyes graduated with a degree in finance.
NAU's final WGCA All-American Scholar was Flores, who just wrapped up her first season as a Lumberjack. As a true freshman, Flores competed in all eight tournaments and averaged a score of 76.78 in 23 rounds. The exercise science major had a season-best finish of a tie for 18th at the Grand Canyon Spring Invitational.
The three 'Jacks each earned Big Sky Spring All-Academic awards last week.
