RIO GRANDE VALLEY – The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley (UTRGV) Department of Intercollegiate Athletics announced on Monday that senior Julie Lucio, of the women's golf team, is the Killers Golf UTRGV Student-Athlete of the Week.
 
Lucio, a Brownsville Veterans alum, finished tied for first at the UTRGV Invitational helping lead the Vaqueros to a second place finish. It was the team's third top-three finish to start the spring season and second-straight second place finish.
