GANNON'S SLONAKER NAMED GLIAC
WOMEN'S GOLFER OF THE WEEK
   
ERIE, Pa. - Gannon’s Jess Slonaker (Sunbury, Pa./Shikellamy) has been named Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (GLIAC) Women’s Golf Athlete of the Week.
   
Slonaker captured her first individual title of the spring season last weekend, overcoming a four-stroke deficit on the final day to win the Ashland University Huntington Bank Invitational. The junior won the title by one stroke over the University of Dayton’s Katie Dempsey. Dayton is a Division I program.
   
The Sunbury, Pa., native was tied for fourth place with an 81 after the first round, but shot a 78 during Sunday’s final round for a two-day total of 159. She helped the Lady Knights finish sixth out of 10 teams with a two-day score of 695, posting team rounds of 347 and 348.
   
Gannon returns to action April 13-14 at the California (Pa.) Invitational
