AKRON, Ohio – Junior
Morgan Rodgers was named the 2026 Mid-American Conference Women's Golf Sportswoman of the Year award as Ohio finishes the final day of play at the MAC Championships at Firestone Country Club in Akron, Ohio.
The Sportswoman of the Year goes to a student-athlete whom players enjoy playing or conversing with; has a good rapport with her own team; is supportive of her own team, but also respects the competition; makes players feel comfortable to be around her; commands respect and esteem rather than merely being popular, and one would consider to be worthy of representing women's intercollegiate golf to others. Rodgers is the first Bobcat to win the award since Lily Pendy won in 2018.
Overall, Ohio finished in 10
th place after shooting a round 3 score of 308 (+28), ending the Championships with a final score of 922 (+82).
