New US honour for England's Jodi Ewart
21st February2009

English strokeplay champion Jodi Ewart has been awarded another honour in US college golf.

She's been selected for an anniversary team of 10 top college players, chosen to celebrate the first decade of the Mountain West Conference.

Jodi, 21, from Catterick in Yorkshire, is a student at the University of New Mexico,  which is part of the Mountain West Conference.  Anniversary teams will be chosen for each of the 19 conference-sponsored sports during the 2008-09 season.

The women's golf anniversary team was picked by a combined panel of media, institutional and conference personnel, and an online fan poll.

Jodi, a Curtis Cup golfer, is the only player in conference history to win two individual titles (2007 and 2008). She was named MWC Freshman of the Year and co-Player of the Year in both 2007 and 2008.

In her latest event on the US women's college circuit, Jodi was tied seventh in a field of 87 for the Lady Puerto Rico Classic at Coco Beach, San Juan. She had  rounds of 74, 74 and 75 for a total of 223 over the 6168 yard course and was four shots behind the joint winners.
