DALLAS – UTEP men's golf's Dylan Teeter has brought home his second consecutive Conference USA Men's Golfer of the Week, as announced by league officials on Wednesday.
Teeter is the first UTEP golfer to earn back-to-back weekly honors since joining CUSA before the 2005-06 athletic season.
Teeter (67-68-67) tied for second place after hitting the links for a career-best 14-under par 202 at the Whirlwind Invitational at Whirlwind G.C. (par 72 | 7,222 yards) on Sept. 8-9, in Chandler, Ariz. The Bixby, Okla., native tallied 14 birdies during the two-day event and recorded an eagle on hole 17 in the first round. Teeter is coming off a solid start to the season after a tied-for-sixth-place finish last week. The fifth-year golfer recorded his eighth career top 10 finish and was the top Miner for a 14th time.
Teeter has penciled in a 67.7 stroke average to lead the Miners in his first two tournaments of the fall season.
For Teeter, it's his fourth CUSA Golfer of the Week honor. The product of Bixby, Okla., was named golfer of the week twice last season (Sept. 11 & Oct. 2) and Sept. 3 of this year.
