Freshman men's golfer Michael Powell has been chosen as the IUPUI Male Student-Athlete of the Month for the month of April. The rookie phenom posted a 76.40 stroke average in five rounds during the month, culminating in a 12th place finish at The Summit League Championships on Apr. 22. 

Powell notched a season-low 54-hole 221 at the three-day event, including a 73 on the final day. In his only other outing of the month he turned in a 36-hole 161 at the Fighting Illini Invitational on Apr. 13. 

Powell ranked second on the team in scoring average this past season and was the squad's low scorer in limited time during the spring. He missed nearly half of the spring schedule due to injury.
