SUGAR GROVE, Il.- UTEP men�s golfer Frederik Dreier earned PING All-Region Division I honors, the Golf Coaches Association of America (GCAA) announced on Saturday. Dreier, who wrapped up his collegiate career at the NCAA Washington Regional on May 17, earned a spot on the Central Regional list. He was the only UTEP honoree and one of the two Conference USA golfers to be recognized this year, with Middle Tennessee�s Joey Savoie making the Southeast Regional list.

Dreier helped lead the Miners to the Conference USA championship with his seventh place finish, the first conference title since 1985 and only the second championship in program history. The victory ticketed the team to the NCAA Regionals for the first time since 2004, where they finished in ninth place. Dreier shot 7-over 220 (76-68-76) to end his second appearance at the NCAA Regional with a share of 27th place.

A staple in the Miner�s lineup for four years, Dreier played in 46 tournaments while tallying 72.8 collegiate career stroke average. He was named the C-USA Golfer of the Year for the second consecutive year, the first Miner to accomplish the feat and only the third golfer in C-USA to repeat the honor. He also gained C-USA First Team recognition. Dreier has been ranked as high as no. 4 on the Arnold Palmer Cup European rankings and has been on the Danish national team since 2011.
