Covenant College senior soccer player Snoopy Davidson was named to the Capital One Academic All-America second team for NCAA Division III, as voted on by the College Sports Information Directors of America. The Rome, Ga., resident and University of South Carolina transfer is the first Covenant athlete to be an All-American in the CoSIDA program. He was the USA South men's player of the year and the league tournament's most valuable player. He had 12 goals and six assists for the Scots this season despite missing five matches because of an injury, and he is an economics major with a 3.71 overall grade point average.

Golf
• The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga announced Friday two early-period women's golf signees from afar for the 2015-16 season. Monica San Juan is from Spain, and Pojjana Mesombat is from Thailand. "I have kept an eye on Monica for the last several years," UTC coach Colette Murray said in the school release. "Her English is exceptional. She did an exchange student program to work on her English specifically so she could come over here to pay golf and go to university. I'm excited to add Pojjana as well. She's a great wee player." Mesombat won the 2014 Gateway PGA Junior Golf qualifier for the Calloway Junior World tournament and finished second in two Mercedes-Benz Junior Championships in May and was in the top 50 of Thailand's Lady Amateur tournament last year." San Juan focused more on local tournaments than international competition, Murray said, but did win the Spain Mixed Doubles Championship last month.
