The SEC honored two Vanderbilt women’s golfers on Friday when junior Jennifer Hahn was named to the All-SEC Second Team and freshman Cindy Ha was selected to the All-Freshman team by the league’s coaches.
Hahn and Ha become the 38th and 39th all-time SEC honorees, and the 15th and 16th of the Greg Allen era. Hahn also made the All-Freshman team in 2013 and the second team in 2014.
This year, Hahn led the team with a 72.78 stroke average while winning two individual titles and finishing in the top 10 in two other tournaments. The junior from Henderson, Nev., had four rounds in the 60’s and posted a season-low 67 in the first round of the SEC Championship in Birmingham. Off the course, Hahn was a member of the 2014 SEC Academic Honor Roll.
Ha has had quite the freshman season for the Commodores, averaging 73.63 strokes per round and garnering an individual title at the Rainbow Wahine Invitational and a runner-up finish at the Mason Rudolph Championship. Ha has started in every Commodore round this season.
The Commodores will travel to St. George, Utah, for the 2015 NCAA Regional, Vanderbilt’s 16th consecutive trip to postseason play.
