WVU golf senior Etienne Papineau will have season-ending knee surgery, according to head coach Sean Covich.

“Pap has meant everything to our program,” Covich said in a release. “He helped build WVU from the ground up.”

Papineau’s name is dotted all over WVU’s record book. He holds the record for the lowest tournament total (203) is second in school history in tournaments played (42), rounds played (123.0) and rounds shot at even or lower par (46) and is fourth in school history with a 73.41 career scoring average.
