Chris Blyth (Pittsford-Mendon/Pittsford) of the nationally-ranked men’s golf team has been named the College’s Male Athlete of the Week after an outstanding performance at the NCAA Division III Men’s Golf Championship last week in Greensboro, N.C.

Blyth helped lead the Cardinals to their third consecutive top-ten finish in the national tournament as the junior finished in sole possession of 12th place in the 72-hole tournament after shooting a combined score of 295 (+4).

Blyth’s third round score of -2 was one of the best rounds of the tournament as the Pittsford native birdied three holes to go along with 14 pars including seven straight to begin the day.

His actions on the course did not go unnoticed as the Golf Coaches Association of America (GCAA) named Blyth to its All-Region Team for the third time in his career.
