ROCK HILL, S.C. (TheSAC.com) – Wingate's Jess Brown was named the South Atlantic Conference WePlayed Sports Women's Golfer of the Week, and Lincoln Memorial's Alex James was named the SAC WePlayed Sports Men's Golfer of the Week for events played during weeks nine and ten of the 2024 spring season, the Conference office announced today.

Brown, a senior from Cirencester, Gloucestershire, England, continued her consistent play with a two-over-par 218 and a 10th place finish individually in the star-studded Lady Moc Classic 2.0. The Lady Moc Classic 2.0 field was one of the strongest at the NCAA D2 level with six top 10 teams in the Scoreboard powered by Clippd.

James, a senior from Ramsbottom, England, led the Railsplitters at the Argonaut Individual with his eighth-place finish. James closed the tournament with a final round 67 to shoot a 213 this Monday and Tuesday. This was the sixth top-10 finish of the season for James.
