BATON ROUGE — Two members of LSU women’s golf team have been named to the National Golf Coaches Association All-American Scholar team announced on Monday.
Kim Meck and Alexis Rather, who will both be seniors this coming season at LSU, are both multiple All-American Scholars as chosen by the NGCA.
The criteria for selection to the All-American Scholar Team are some of the most stringent of all college athletics. The minimum cumulative GPA is 3.50 and student-athletes must have competed in at least 50% (Division I) or 66% (Division II & III) of the college’s regularly scheduled competitive rounds during the year.
Meck, All-American Scholar for the third straight year, hails from Austin, Texas and Rather, who also was named an All-American Scholar last year, is from Tupelo, Miss. Meck is a finance major and Rather is majoring in mass communications.
