BOCA RATON, Fla. – Conference USA named Florida Atlantic University's Alex Maguire to its All-Freshman team and All-Conference Third Team on Thursday. Maguire is the program's first All-Conference selection since joining C-USA and its first All-Freshman selection since 2014.
The Mornington, Ireland native played beyond his years in his first collegiate season. Maguire shot the second-best single-season stroke average (72.43) in team history in 2019-20, adding three eagles to tie for seventh all-time.
"I'm very excited to hear of Alex's third team all-conference and all-freshman team selections," FAU coach Ryan Jamison said. "Alex had a great first year, and I really feel like this is just the beginning of something special for him with continued hard work and education."
Last season Maguire garnered a 362 National Scoring Rating, ninth in FAU history. His 65 in round three of the 2019 Golfweek Program Championship was the second best single-round score ever posted by an Owl. Maguire shot par or better in eight rounds overall, the 14th most in program history.
For the year, Maguire finished in the top-10 three times and the top-25 once. He was an integral part of FAU becoming the second-ranked freshman class by Golfstat's relative strength (420.582).
Maguire and FAU hope to build off this year's postseason honors heading into their next campaign.
