TALLAHASSEE, Fla. –Three Seminoles – Charlotte Heath, Lottie Woad, and Amelia Williamson – have been named to the 2023 All-ACC Women’s Golf team in a vote by the league’s 12 head coaches. It is the third time Heath has earned All-ACC honors, the second time for Williamson and the first time Woad has been honored by the ACC. Woad was also named as the ACC Freshman of the Year, marking just the second time a Florida State golfer has been named as the ACC’s top newcomer in the sport of women’s golf.
The selection of three Seminoles to the All-ACC team marks just the third time in school history that three or more players have earned All-ACC honors in the same season. The school record for All-ACC selections in the same year is four — Matilda Castren, Lydia Gumm, Kim Metraux and Morgane Metraux – in 2017. Woad is just the second Seminole to earn ACC Freshman of the Year honors – joining only Frida Kinhult in 2019.
Florida State and Wake Forest are the only two teams in the ACC with three or more players named to the 2023 All-ACC Women’s Golf team.
Head Coach Amy Bond has now coached a total of 24 All-ACC selections in her first 13 years as the Seminoles’ head coach, and is the only head coach in school history to have coached the only two players (Kinhult and Woad) in school history to earn ACC Freshman of the Year honors.
“We are super excited for Charlotte, Lottie, and Amelia,” said Bond. “All three golfers have played well all season, and set the tone both on and off the course for our entire team. With the semester coming to a close, we expect to do as well in the classroom as we have on the course this season. We are thankful to our administration and professors on campus who work to give all of the girls on our team the opportunities to be successful throughout their careers.”
Heath and Woad are both on the ANNIKA Award Watch list – the award that names the National Player of the Year at the conclusion of the NCAA Championships. Each of the Seminoles who earned All-ACC honors had the pleasure of competing in Augusta National Women’s Amateur in Match at Augusta National.
Heath enters the NCAA Raleigh Regional Championship as the Seminoles’ leader in stroke average with a school-record best 70.79 scoring average. She has finished in the top five in the individual standings in four of Florida State’s five events and is a total of 17 strokes under par this spring for her junior…
