CORAL SPRINGS, Fla. – The Women's Golf Coaches Association announced the release of its All-American Scholars on Tuesday morning as five Bison golfers were recognized with the prestigious honor.
Seniors Michelle Carr, Shelby Phillips, and Elly Baze, along with junior Josie Patterson and freshman Valentina Nunez-Butzonitch all earned a spot on the team. A total of 1,432 women's collegiate golfers were named to the team.
"I am so proud for what this team has accomplished this school year," said head coach Mike Manlapig. "With so much on their plate and a worldwide pandemic present, these young ladies continued to excel both on the course and in the classroom."
The criteria for selection to the WGCA All-American Scholar Team are some of the most stringent in all of college athletics with the minimum cumulative GPA at 3.50.
