Berea, Ky. (May 1st, 2013) – The KIAC released the Men’s Golf All-Conference Team, Player of the Year, Comeback Player of the Year, and Coach of the Year on Wednesday, May 1st. Alice Lloyd is pleased to announce that Andrew (Drew) Riley, a junior from Huntington, WV, has been named to the exclusive All-Conference Team.
Drew Riley joined the ALC golf team after playing 2 1/2 years of baseball for the College as a pitcher. He has been a dedicated and consistent golfer all season. During his three matches this spring, Riley was in contention for top 5 low medalist, and the fact that he received the All-Conference selection at the KIAC Tournament in Gibson Bay only shows the sacrifices and hard work that he has shown this year.
In the tournament, Riley shot scores of 78-81-80 in his three rounds for a total score of 239, which led him to picking up the All-Conference honors.

Cincinnati Christian sophomore Adam Noah was named the Conference Comeback Player of the Year.
