April 23, 2008

Complimenting its first conference title since 1989, the USC women's golf team dominated the All-Pac-10 Team announced on Wednesday (April 23) after the tournament, placing a school-record six golfers on the first, second and honorable mention teams.

Andrea Gaston, USC's 12th-year Head Coach, was voted Pac-10 Coach of the Year while Lizette Salas earned Freshman of the Year honors.

Senior Paola Moreno, who won USC's first Pac-10 individual title since 2000, joined senior Dewi Claire Schreefel and sophomore Belen Mozo on the All-Pac-10 first team. Schreefel and Mozo tied for third at the Pac-10 Championships.

For Schreefel, a two-time All-American, it was her first first-team nod, as it was for Mozo. It was Moreno's second first team selection as USC earned three first-team picks for the first time in school history.

Salas and sophomore Stephanie Endstrasser, sixth and eighth, respectively, at the Pac-10 Championships, were both All-Pac-10 second team selections. Freshman Joanne Lee rounded USC's selections as an honorable mention pick.

Previously, the most conference selections USC had in one season was four.
