Saint John's University junior golfer Casey Vangsness (Alexandria, Minn.) combined for a five-under par 280 with two tournament wins in four rounds over the weekend and was named the MIAC Men's Golf Athlete of the Week for his performance. 

Vangsness led 21 golfers with a three-under par 69 and six birdies in the Johnnies' 282-285 dual win over St. Cloud State April 26, then shot a two-round total of 138 (-4) to earn medalist honors as SJU won its own Winter Invitational April 28. Vangsness ended the weekend with a two-over par 73 in the team's win at the single-round SJU Spring Invitational April 29.

He totaled 17 birdies in the four rounds, nearly one every four holes played (23.6 percent).

SJU, ranked third nationally, ends its regular season at the Gustavus Adolphus Invitational this Friday and Saturday, May 3-4. Friday's round is scheduled for 8:30 a.m. at Le Sueur C.C., followed by a noon start on Saturday at Ridges at Sand Creek in Jordan.
