DURHAM, N.C. – The awards keep coming in for Duke University rising senior Leona Maguire as she was tabbed the recipient of the 2017 Edith Cummings Munson Golf Award Monday by the Women’s Golf Coaches Association (WGCA).
The award is presented annually for women's division I golf and goes to the student-athlete who is an upper classman and both a WGCA All-American Scholar and a WGCA All-America. If more than one student-athlete qualifies, the student-athlete with the highest GPA receives the award. A donation of $5,000 is given from the Curtis & Edith Cummings Munson Foundation to the general scholarship fund of the recipient's institution.
