Nate Vontz Named BIG EAST Male Golfer of the Week

OMAHA, Neb. -- Creighton senior Nate Vontz has been named the BIG EAST Male Golfer of the Week, league officials announced on Wednesday.

Vontz picked up a 13-shot victory in a dominating performance at Stampede At The Creek to help Creighton to a 25-shot victory.

Vontz obliterated the previous Bluejay record for an 18-hole score as well as a 54-hole score, en route to becoming the first Creighton player to win a tournament with more than 40 competitors since Kade Brown won the 2016 Jackrabbit Invitational. Vontz was 1-under through the midpoint of his initial round on Monday before firing a 28 on the back nine, including back-to-back eagles.
