MACON, Ga. (March 4, 2009) - Junior Sinead O'Sullivan (Galway, Ireland) collected her second career individual championship and the ETSU women's golf team finished ahead of five ranked opponents, earning her the women's Atlantic Sun Golfer of the Month honor for the month of February, as announced by the league office on Wednesday. This is the second time O'Sullivan has earned this honor in her career.

O'Sullivan became just the second ETSU female to win two individual championship medals in her career, finishing tied for first in the Kiawah Island Classic. Facing a field comprised of 43 teams, the Galway, Ireland, native fired a final round 1-under-par 71 to capture the championship. It was her second collegiate title, as she joined teammate Laura Jansone (Jurmala, Latvia) as multiple individual title winners.

The Bucs were set to compete in the Pinehurst Invitational hosted by Campbell this week, but due to inclement weather it was cancelled. ETSU women return to action at the UNC Wilmington Seahawk Invitational.
