MINNEAPOLIS – Minnesota senior Angus Flanagan has been named a member of the Division I PING Midwest All-Region team for the third straight season, the Golf Coaches Association of America announced Saturday.

An All-Big Ten First Team honoree, Flanagan was a two-time medalist during the regular season, winning the Boilermaker Invitational and Git R Done Husker Invitational in back-to-back tournaments. He became the first Gopher to win consecutive tournaments the spring of 2014. As a result, Flanagan also was named Big Ten Golfer of the Week after both performances.

He went on to earn an invitation to the NCAA Noblesville Regional where he tied for 38th.

Currently ranked 11th in the PGA Tour University Rankings, Flanagan finished the season by accumulating 1,517 strokes over 21 rounds, good for a scoring average of 72.24 that ranks 10th all-time at Minnesota. In addition, he finished the season with a career scoring average of 71.87 that is second in program history behind only James McLean's 71.48.

Flanagan also led Minnesota in tournaments won (2), tournaments leading the team (5), birdies (73), rounds under par (8),  best finish to par (-9), low score for 18 (66) and 54 holes (207), most top-10 finishes (2) and most top-20 finishes (3).

Flanagan becomes just the third golfer in program history to earn at least three all-region honors in his career. Bronson La'Cassie was a four-time all-region pick during his career and Erik Van Rooyen also garnered three such honors.

As a senior, Flanagan has the option to use an additional year of eligibility next season with Minnesota should he choose to do so.
