BOWLING GREEN, Ky. — WKU Lady Topper Golf head coach Adam Gary announced Wednesday the signing of Lizzie Loy (Jamestown, Ky.) to a national letter of intent in the 2017-18 signing class.
Â
"Lizzie has shown improvement every year since she committed to WKU," Gary said. "Her hard work and competitiveness helped her achieve a No. 2 rank in the state of Kentucky and make the all-state team her senior year. We are looking forward to having her on The Hill next year."
Â
Loy was named a first-team all-state selection in 2017 out of Russell County High School, as well as Region 9 Player of the Year. She notched five individual high school tournament wins as a senior, the most of any boys' or girls' player in the state.
Â
Loy participated in the KHSAA state tournament in each of her four years of high school and was part of a four-time region tournament championship team.
Â
She's ranked No. 2 overall in the state of Kentucky and No. 2 in her class by Junior Golf Scoreboard Rankings.
Â
Loy, who committed to WKU as a sophomore in high school, has won more than 50 junior tournaments, including victories on the KY PGA Junior Tour, Hurricane Junior Tour, Golfweek Junior Tour and Southeast KY Junior Tour.
Â
She defended her title in 2017 to win the 53rd Capital City Classic in Frankfort, Ky., and was the low junior in the 2017 Kentucky Women's Open. She's also a two-time runner-up in the Kentucky Junior Am and was medalist at the AJGA Qualifier in London, Ky.
