Goldman Named SEC Golfer Of The Week
STARKVILLE, Miss. ? Mississippi State junior Noah Goldman has been named Southeastern Conference male golfer of the week, as announced today by the league office in Birmingham. The honor comes after Goldman claimed the individual title at the Roadrunner Intercollegiate in San Antonio, Texas this past week.
Goldman shot a 54-hole score of 212 for 1-under-par in helping MState to a first place finish. The Longwood, Fla.-native also notched a career-low 64 in round two, tying for third all-time in MSU’s history.
