Golfer Alisha Lau, a senior media production major at the University of Colorado, Boulder, didn’t take a break when the Pac-12 canceled its fall season. Instead, she teamed up with teammate Hailey Schalk for the United States Golf Association’s 4-ball qualifier. Together, the duo won, carding a 4-under 68. Lau was also named to the 2021 Golf Canada Women’s Amateur Team in November. In the 2019-20 season, Lau led CU to five top-20 finishes and wrapped up the fall by shooting under 220 at the final two tournaments. She is a 2019-20 Pac-12 Academic Honor Roll member and a 2019-20 Women’s Golf Coaches Association All-American Scholar.
