Idaho’s Daniel Sutton has been selected as the Big Sky Conference Men’s Golfer of the Week after tying for second place at the 2015 Desert Shootout.
Sutton, a freshman from Birmingham, England, played his best tournament as a collegiate golfer. He carded a 7-under-par 65 in the final round at the Palm Valley Golf Course in Goodyear, Ariz. The 65 tied the lowest round by a Big Sky golfer during the 2014-15 season. Sutton opened play with a 72 and followed with a 69 for a 10-under-par 206. He did not have a bogey in his final two rounds. 
Sutton helped Idaho to a fourth-place finish in the 15-team tournament, played March 19-21. Idaho finished with an 839, 10 shots behind winner Kansas, and just one back of Iowa State and Wichita State.
This is Sutton’s first Big Sky Golfer of the Week honor.
