ST. JOSEPH – For the second time this year Missouri Western sophomore Shi Qing Ong was named MIAA Women’s Golfer of the Week.

Ong claimed her third individual title of 2016-17 earlier this week at the Southwest Minnesota State Invitational in Litchfield, Arizona. Ong went from fourth after a first round 77 to the title with a 72 in round two. Her two day total was a 5-over-par 149 that helped Missouri Western to the team title at the event.

Ong and the Griffons will go for back-to-back trophies when the team hosts the Holiday Inn Express Spring Invitational at the St. Joseph Country Club, March 20 and 21.
