ST. LOUIS, Mo. – Illinois State freshman Jessica Jolly has been named the Missouri Valley Conference Golfer of the Week after her performance at The Clash at Boulder Creek over the weekend.
For Jolly it is her first career MVC Golfer of the Week honor, and she is the third different Redbird to have earned the award during the fall season, joining Jinyoung Yun and Morgan Jones who shared the honor after the season-opening Redbird Invitational.
Jolly carded three consecutive 70's during the tournament, tied for the third-lowest single-rounds for a freshman in school history, and her 54-hole score of 210 is eight strokes better than the previous freshman mark, which she had previously topped this season.
