COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - Chadron State's Ally Malzahn has been named the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference Women's Golfer of the Week for her performance at the Maverick Invitational at Mesa State College on Monday and Tuesday.

Malzahn is the first Chadron State golfer to win this honor since 2004, when Sarah Halsey was the player of the week.

Malzahn, a senior from Sidney, Neb., shot a 75 during Tuesday's final round to win the event with a two-day total of 155.

Malzahn's 75 is one shot off the school record that she set Sept. 18 at the Regis Tournament, and her 155 total is two shots off the Chadron State record for 36 holes that she set at the Adams State Tournament a week ago.

The only other Chadron State golfer to win a tournament this decade was Sarah Halsey, who won the Fort Hays Triangular in October 2004 and the Colorado Christian Tournament in April 2006.
