Tong is the first IU women’s golfer to receive first-team All-Big Ten honors since Shannon Johnson in 2006.
She has finished in the top 25 at seven of IU’s 10 events this season. Tong’s 73.53 stroke average leads the team.
At the Spirit of Indiana Showcase on Monday, Tong also earned the Spirit of Indiana Director’s Award from Director of Athletics Fred Glass.
“It is a great honor to receive this award,” Tong said. “Coming to Indiana changed my life, and I’ve learned so much during my time here. To all our student-athletes, you are true heroes and I couldn’t be happier to be anywhere else.”
