OVC Male Golfer of the Week
Jackson Skeen · So. · Jonesborough, Tenn. · Tennessee Tech

Skeen earned his second OVC Golfer of the Week honor of the season after capturing medalist honors at the Georgia State Invitational at the Berkeley Hills Country Club in Duluth, Georgia. The sophomore had rounds of 71-70-67 to finish at 208 (-8), two shots ahead of the field of 87 competitors. After Tennessee Tech overcame a nine-stroke deficit entering the day to force a playoff with James Madison, Skeen nailed a 10-foot, downhill birdie on the playoff hole to lift Tennessee Tech to the team championship, the program's first since the 2018-19 season. Skeen, who was named OVC Co-Golfer of the Month for September earlier in the week, is tied for first in the OVC in scoring average (69.2).
