By Wes Mayberry

ADA — Ohio Northern freshman David Walsh (Mason/Moeller) has been named the Ohio Athletic Conference Men's Golfer of the Week for the week of Sept. 14-20.

Playing as part of ONU's "B" team, Walsh won Medalist honors with a 73-74—147 at the Bluffton Beaver Classic at Bluffton Golf Club, which featured a 48-man field.

Those scores marked career lows for the freshman, as his previous best was a 76 at the ONU Invitational earlier this season.

Overall, Walsh's ONU "B" squad carded a 314-317—631 to finish fourth in the eight-team Bluffton tournament.

The Polar Bears' top team shared first place with Bluffton, as both teams carded a 605.

ONU returns to action on Monday at the Capital Classic at Hickory Hills Golf Club in Grove City.
