SPARTANBURG, S.C. – ETSU’s Remi Chartier has been selected as the Southern Conference Men’s Golfer of the Week for all competition from Oct. 6-12. The selection is made by the league office and is the third one of the season.
 
Chartier earned his top collegiate finish and top 54-hole score at the Bank of Tennessee Intercollegiate in Jonesborough, Tennessee, posting three straight rounds below par to finish tied for third at 11-under-par 205. He fired a collegiate-best 6-under 66 in Monday’s second round to take a two-shot lead at 10-under-par before shooting a 1-under 71 on Tuesday to tie with Charlotte’s Matt Sharpstene for third. The redshirt sophomore led the field in par-4 scoring at 10-under, while totaling 14 birdies and 37 pars over the 54 holes. The Montreal, Canada, native helped guide the 19^th-ranked Buccaneers to the team victory, which marks the second time that ETSU has won the title in its 23-year history of the tournament.
 
The Buccaneers clinched the victory in the 15-team, 93-golfer field, tying the tournament record with a 35-under 829 performance. ETSU shot 277 in the first round, 275 in the second, and 277 in the final round, scoring wins over Charlotte (-29), Louisville (-29), and Georgia Southern (-24). With the win, the Buccaneers have now recorded three victories in their last five tournaments played, which also includes the 2021 SoCon Championship and NCAA Regional.
