Morgan Hoffmann (Oklahoma State) and Hannah Burke (Baylor) were chosen as the Big 12 Golfers of the Month for competition through March, the conference office announced. This is the first-career league award for both golfers.

Hoffmann helped the Cowboys to runner-up finishes at both the Southern Highlands Collegiate and the Linger Longer Invitational. He shot a 62 in the second round at the SHC tournament in Las Vegas and tied for second place (72-62-76=210), matching the school’s 18-hole scoring record. Hoffmann tied for first (72-72-70=212) at the Morris Williams for his second career victory, while leading OSU to its first team title of the spring. The freshman is currently ranked No. 4 in the Golfweek/Sagarin Performance Index.

Burke tallied a scoring average of 76 during March, while leading the Bears to a tournament title at the Cincinnati Invitational and third place at the Baylor Spring Invite. The junior from Hertfordshire, England, carded a three-round total of 227 (77-74-76) at the UC Invitational to finish third overall, tallying seventh top-five finish of her career. Earlier in the month, Burke tied for sixth at the Baylor Spring Invitate with a three-round score of 229 (77-73-79). Her 1-over, 73 during the second round was a tournament-low among the 19 Big 12 golfers at the 54-hole event.
