Five Women’s Golfers Named as WGCA All-American Scholars
CORAL SPRINGS, Fla. — Creighton University had five women who are among the 1,497 collegiate golfers recognized by the Women’s Golf Coaches Association as All-American Scholars. The Bluejay honorees include freshmen Abby Aeschleman, Annie Dawson and Katharine Marshall, sophomore Annika Yturralde and junior Eleanor Hudepohl.
Creighton’s five honorees were the third-most in the BIG EAST, trailing only St. John’s (7) and Seton Hall (6). It’s the fifth straight season that Creighton’s had at least five players recognized.
