BISMARCK, N.D. -- Bellevue University senior Rodrigo Navarrete (Guadalajara, Mexico) has been honored by the North Star Athletic Association's Golfer of the Week, as announced by the league office on Tuesday afternoon.
Navarrete was the lone golfer to finish under par at last week's Midwest Spring National Invitational, played at the 7,278-yard, Par 72 Colbert Hills in Manhattan, Kan.
Navarrete carded a 4-under 68 in Monday's opening round and followed up with a second round 1-under score of 71. His 5-under tournament score netted him a seven-stroke victory, his second of the year as Bellevue won the team title by 13 strokes (589, +13).
The weekly award is the 11th of Navarrete's esteemed BU career and second this season after also being recognized a week ago.
Bellevue next competes in the NSAA Tournament, an event that they will host May 1-2 at Platteview Country Club.
