Eagles of the Week Presented by EMUCU

YPSILANTI, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) -- Each week, the Eastern Michigan University Department of Athletics names the EMUCU's Athletes of the Week, as selected by the athletic media relations department based on their athletic performances from the previous week. This week's winners are volleyball athlete, Cassie Haut, and men's golf athlete, Ty Celone.

Position: Middle blocker
Year: Redshirt junior

Week's Achievements: Redshirt junior Cassie Haut (Monroe, Mich.-St. Mary Catholic Central) led the attack for EMU over the weekend, finishing with 29 kills and 18 total blocks. The middle blocker was named to the Robert Morris Sheraton Invitational All-Tournament team, marking the third time this season Haut has been named to an all-tournament team (joining the St. John Kaiser Classic and William and Mary Colonial Classic). The Monroe, Mich. native had double-digit kills in two of the three weekend matches, and had a season-high eight blocks against Robert Morris University.

Week's Achievements: After holding a share of the lead after day one, sophomore Ty Celone (Long Sault, Ontario, Canada-St. Joseph's) recorded his second career top-five finish with a four-under 206 (68-69-69) at the EKU Raising Canes Intercollegiate. Celone posted a one-under 69 to close out his weekend and match his entire total of rounds at par-or-better from last season.

Overall, EMU captured its first tournament title in over eight years Sunday, Sept. 16, with a first-place finish at the EKU Raising Canes Intercollegiate. The Eagles carded a two-under 838 (274-283-281) to win the 54-hole affair by 10 strokes. The three round tally of 838 is second-best in school history, bettered only by a 836 (280-284-272) set last year at the Loyola Intercollegiate, Feb. 25-26, 2018. The victory was Head Coach Bruce Cunningham's eighth team title since the 2005-06 campaign and the program's first stroke-play win since winning the Robert Kepler Intercollegiate, April 10-11, 2010, in Columbus, Ohio. Additionally, it was EMU's first season-opening victory since the Cleveland State Invitational, Sept. 11-12, 2006.
