BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – Auburn University freshman Logan Reilly has been named the Southeastern Conference (SEC) Freshman Golfer of the Week, following a dominant runner-up finish at the Turtle Point Invitational that showcased his precision, poise, and promise for the future of Auburn Men’s Golf.
Competing at Turtle Point Yacht & Country Club, Reilly delivered a statement performance, carding rounds of 68, 66, and 67 to finish 15-under (201) — just one stroke shy of medalist honors and six shots ahead of the nearest freshman in the 75-player field.
His 201 (-15) total ties the seventh-best 54-hole score in Auburn program history, placing him alongside elite company and continuing the Tigers’ legacy of producing top-tier collegiate golfers. He also joins teammate Jackson Koivun as only the second freshman in the last decade to post a top-10 finish in a major collegiate event.
Reilly’s stellar play included 16 birdies, two eagles, and only five bogeys, making him the only player in the field to record multiple eagles over the three-round tournament. His ability to stay composed under pressure and capitalize on scoring opportunities underscored his growing reputation as one of the brightest young talents in collegiate golf.
“Logan’s consistency and confidence are well beyond his years,” said Auburn Head Coach [Insert Name]. “He’s a fierce competitor and a great representative of our program’s future.”
With momentum on their side, Reilly and the No. 1-ranked Auburn Tigers now turn their focus to The Williams Cup, scheduled for October 19–21 at Eagle Point Golf Club in Wilmington, North Carolina, where they aim to continue their dominant fall season run.
