Eastern Illinois senior golfer Meera Upadhyay has been named the Ohio Valley Conference Women's Golfer of the Week. 
 
Upadhyay placed fourth this past week at the Omaha Fall Stampede at the Creek as she carded a 54-hole school record score of 223.   Upadhyay opened play with a round of one-under par, 71, which tied for the second best single round score in program history.  She closed with rounds of 78 and 74 to post the school record total.
 
In addition to her individual effort, Upadhyay helped the Panthers finish third in the event while posting a team 54-hole scoring school record of 934.  
 
Through eight rounds this fall, Upadhyay holds a 76.6 season stroke average.
 
She becomes just the seventh player in school history to win OVC Golfer of the Week honors and first since Daphne Chang in 2019.
