Fort Hays State’s Trey Herman earned the MIAA Men’s Golf Athlete of the Week honors for his efforts at the UNK Invitational, held at Awarii Dunes Golf Course in Axtell, Neb. (Sept. 15-16). He finished second individually, shooting 4-under par overall over three rounds.

Herman shot even par in the first round, 4-under in the second round, and then even par again in the final round. Herman and tournament champ Ross Miller of Minnesota State-Mankato tied for the lowest round carded in the tournament, each with a 4-under 68. Herman’s 68 came in the second round, giving him the tournament lead going into the final round, but Miller’s came in the final round. He was three back of Herman to start the day and jumped him by one stroke at 5-under overall.

Over his last five tournament rounds, Herman is 6-under par overall. Three of those rounds have been even par, coupled with a 4-under par and 2-under par performance. He has an overall stroke average of 72.0 so far this year and an average relation to par of +0.5 for all six of his rounds. He has finished in the top 10 of both events he has played this year.
