KANSAS CITY, Mo. - For the third time this spring and the seventh time in her career Morgan Brasser has been named MIAA Women's Golfer of the Week, announced Wednesday by the conference office.
Brasser earned her second-consecutive victory at the weather-shortened 2024 Holiday Inn Express Classic, winning the event in St. Joseph, Mo. for a third year in a row. The senior fired an even-par 72 in the only round of the tournament on Monday, tying for first place.
The Andale, Kan. native recorded six birdies in the round, two more than any other player in the field. She led the field in par-5 scoring with a stroke average of 4.5 while tying for fourth in par-4 scoring and tying for 12th in par-3 scoring.
The senior birdied her final hole of the event to clinch the win, doing so for the second week in a row after winning the Midwest Spring Intercollegiate with a birdie on the 36th hole last week. Brasser now has six tournament wins in her career, one off the school record.
Brasser shared the weekly honor with Missouri Western's Florence Phan, with whom she was named co-champion at St. Joseph Country Club.
She now has seven top-10 finishes in nine events this season, including six top-five finishes. She improved her stroke average to 73.95 this season and 76.54 for her career.
