MIDDLETOWN, Ohio -- Indiana University East sophomore Jake Miller fired four rounds in the 60s to win two tournaments on his way to River States Conference Men's Golfer of the Week Sept. 6. The award encompassed all events played through Sept. 5 as the first award of the year.
Miller, from Richmond, Ind., shot consecutive rounds of 1-under 69 to win first place at the Earlham College Quaker Kickoff Aug. 28. That led the Red Wolves to third place of 11 teams.
Miller then shot 68-66 at the IU East Fall Invitation to win there as well. The 66 tied a school record and rallied the Red Wolves to the team victory with a school-record team score of 279 on the par-72 course.
