NEW YORK, N.Y. - Seton Hall golfer Lloyd Jefferson Go (Guadalupe Cebu City, Philippines) was unanimously named BIG EAST Freshman of the Year on Tuesday. He also was a unanimous selection to the 10-man All-BIG EAST Team.
A participant in all 11 tournaments for Seton Hall throughout the 2013-14 academic year, Go averaged a team-best 72.6 strokes per round. Named Seton Hall Freshman Athlete of the Year, he led the Pirates as the low scorer in 10 of the 11 events. Go had four tournaments where he shot under par, which ties him for third-most in Seton Hall history despite being only a freshman. He's tied with newly inducted Seton Hall Athletics Hall of Famer Mike Costigan and trails only Eugene Smith (nine) and Kyle Morris (six).
On October 21, Go finished third at the Barnabas Health Intercollegiate with a 5-under-par score. His tournament score of 139 tied the Seton Hall record for the lowest two-round, par-72 score. Furthermore, his 5-under-par score is tied for the third-lowest against par in history.
Go also proceeded to shoot under par at The Doc Gimmler, the Princeton Invitational and the Rutherford Intercollegiate. He recorded six, top-10 finishes.
