It was the second week in a row that Davis has been chosen for the NWC honor.

Davis took first place in the individual standings at Spring Trilogy #3, as he helped Willamette win the team title. Davis carded a score of 1-under 69 in the 18-hole tournament to win by four strokes over teammate Andrew Kibbee (Sr., Kenmore, WA/Bothell HS), who shot a 73 for second place.
