Senior men's golf standout Michael Davan has been named the IUPUI Sahm's Male Athlete of the Month for the month of April 2012. The Hoopeston, Ill.-native had a 72.45 stroke average through 11 rounds during the month and guided the Jaguars to a pair of tournament titles.

The First Team All-Summit League performer saved his best for last in April, shooting a Summit League Championship record 205 (64-71-70) at Primm Valley to help IUPUI win the program's first title since 2006. Davan clinched the team title with a par putt on No. 18 in a 10-man playoff, helping IUPUI edge Southern Utah for an automatic berth into the NCAA Tournament.  

Davan helped IUPUI open the month with the Penn Quaker Invitational title, shooting a 157 (86-71) at that event to tie for 11th overall. Later, he helped the Jaguars take second at the NYX Hoosier Invitational with a 215 (73-71-71) at the IU Golf Course, including finishing ahead of host Indiana.

Two days later, he closed the COG Mizzou Intercollegiate tied for 11th overall at 220 (74-69-77).

Davan currently leads The Summit League with a 72.06 stroke average and eight top 10 finishes among his 13 tournament entries. With Davan at the top of the lineup, IUPUI has won a school record seven tournament titles this season, while is also tied for the top mark in the nation.

Sophomore women's track runner Rebekah Jones has been chosen the IUPUI Sahm's Athlete of the Month for April 2012. The Indianapolis-native was consistently the Jaguars top runner for the month including a standout effort at the Apr. 21 Dave Rankin Invitational at Purdue.

At the Miami Invitational, Jones was IUPUI's top performer in both the 5,000m and 1,500m races, placing 21st overall in the latter in a time of 4:50.14. In the 5K, she took 15th overall at 18:19.87.

At the Purdue meet, she posted new personal record times in both events, placing fifth at 17:59.81 in the 5K race to eclipse 18 minutes for the first time in her career. In the 1,500, she placed eighth at 4:44.28, marking the quickest time by an IUPUI runner this season.

Jones capped the month by running 4:47.22 in the 1,500 at the 2012 Stan Lyons Invitational at Butler.
