GREENEVILLE, Tenn. --- Tusculum College women's golfer Suzanne Sisco was the inaugural recipient of the "Bob Dibble Spirit of the Game Award" announced officials last month. The award is named in honor of the long-time Tusculum coach and is selected by the South Atlantic Conference women's golf coaches.

The "Bob Dibble Spirit of the Game Award" recognizes the South Atlantic Conference women's golf team member that demonstrates a genuine love of the game, outstanding character, leadership and places team before self.
