Oskaloosa–Brooke Fletcher (So., Atlantic, Iowa, Business Management) picked up a links title last week and her performance netted her Heart of America Athletic Conference Women’s Golfer of the Week honors Monday.

Fletcher earned her first weekly accolade by topping the 55-player field at the Mike “Fluff” Cowan Intercollegiate hosted by William Penn with a 161 (81-80).  The sophomore, who was playing for WPU’s second team, won the event by two strokes; the 161 is the lowest two-day score of her career.

Fletcher’s title is her first at the collegiate level.  She currently owns an 83.9 stroke average over 16 rounds, highlighted by a career best of 78.

The award is the fourth of the year for the program.FletcherBrookeActionFall15web
