The ACC selected UNC senior–and Chapel Hill native–Ben Griffin as its Golfer of the Month for October, it was announced on Thursday.

In four tournaments last month, Griffin posted a win, a second-place finish, three top-10 and four top-15 finishes.

His most impressive performance came while winning the Tar Heel Intercollegiate at Finley Golf Course in Chapel Hill, as he set a UNC single-tournament record by shooting 19-under-par for the three-round event.

Throughout the month of October, Griffin’s stroke average was 70.5 across his 12 rounds .

That consistent level of play helped UNC win the Tar Heel Intercollegiate and earn runner-up finishes at the Wolfpack Intercollegiate and the UNCG Grandover Collegiate.
