ODESSA, Texas – Senior Sangha Park has been selected as a 2023 SwingU College Player of the Fall recipients as announced in partnership by SwingU and the Golf Coaches Association of America.

Park began his senior season with six birdies, an eagle, and a one-under 141 (71-70), T3 finish at the Folds of Honor Challenge September 10-11.
