ALL-AMERICAN

Little Miami graduate and Northern Kentucky University golfer Danny Lewis added to his postseason honors with a selection to the PING All-America second team, the Golf Coaches Association of America announced. Lewis, a junior from Morrow, was one of only three Great Lakes Valley Conference golfers selected to the All-America team. He was also honored as a part of the PING All-Midwest Region Team.

Lewis led the Norse with a 72.97 scoring average over 29 rounds during the 2009-10 season. Lewis took the medal at two separate events this season. He shot a season-low 67 to follow a first-round 68 to win the Great Lakes Regional Invitational and took the medal at the Great Lakes Valley Conference Championships by four strokes. His performance also helped NKU capture the team title at the GLVC Championships for the third time in the last five seasons.

The award marks the first time an NKU golfer has been named an All-American since two athletes were selected as honorable mention All-Americans in 2006. Lewis is ranked as the No. 3 player in the Midwest Region and the No. 22 player in all of NCAA Division II by Golfstat. He is also a three-time All-GLVC honoree.
