Women's Golf: Heath, Woad, Williamson Named To All-ACC Team; Woad Freshman Of The Year. May 1, 2023 by Chuck Walsh 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 season, Heath is a cumulative total of 32 strokes under par. She finished as the individual co-champion at the Landfall Tradition in October.
"I'm happy to be selected to the All-ACC for the third consecutive season," said Heath. "My focus is on the success of our team as we begin play in regionals next week. We are really looking forward
to a great week of practice, and beginning play in Raleigh." Heath is just the fifth player in school history to earn All-ACC honors at least three times as a Seminole. She joins Caroline Westrup
(2006, 07, 08, 09), Kristin Tamulis (2001, 02, 03), Castren (2014, 16, 17) and Beatrice Wallin (2019, 21, 22) as Florida State golfers who have earned All-ACC honors three or more times. Woad, who
has earned seven top-10 finishes in her nine events in her first season as a Seminoles, enters the NCAA Raleigh Regional Championship with a 70.84 stoke average. She has earned two individual
championships (at the Ivy Intercollegiate and the Florida State Match Up) and has six top-five individual finishes. Woad has finished under par in five of her nine starts, including a 10 under
performance in finishing in third place in the Moon Invitational in February. "I am pleased to have made the All-ACC team in my first year after playing pretty consistently throughout the season,"
said Woad. "It's an honor for our program, and for me, to be named the ACC Freshman of the Year." Heath and Woad were recently named to the International Team for the 2023 Palmer Cup (June 8-10)
at the Laurel Valley Golf Club in Ligonier, Pa. Williamson, the first player to play in five seasons in the history of the program, is averaging 72.80 strokes in nine events as a senior. She
finished in fifth place in the individual standings at the Florida State Match Up, and in a tie for 15th place in the recently completed ACC Championships. Williamson is ranked sixth in school
history with 123 career rounds played, and is looking to become just the second player in school history to play in 130 or more career rounds. "I am honored to receive All-ACC team recognition,
said Williamson. "It's nice to see an honor of this caliber come from my hard work, especially in my final season as a Seminole." Florida State begins play on May 8 at the NCAA Raleigh (N.C.)
Regional Championship at the Lonnie Poole Golf Course. The Seminoles are looking to become just the sixth team since 2000 to win three consecutive regional championships after winning the titles at
the Louisville (2021) and Tallahassee Regional (2022) in the last two years. "We've had a really good season, but we know there's a lot of golf left to play," said Bond. "We are happy for members
of our team to be honored, but we all know there are bigger team goals ahead in the next four weeks. We are all excited to get on the road and play Florida State golf." 2023 ACC Women's Golf
Player of the Year 2023 ACC Women's Golf Freshman of the Year 2023 ACC Women's Golf Coach of the Year 2023 All-ACC Women's Golf Team June 1, 2023 by Chuck Walsh TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Florida State junior Charlotte Heath and freshman Lottie Woad, who led the Seminoles to a fifth place
finish at the 2023 NCAA Division I Championship Finals, have earned All-American First-Team honors as announced by the Women's Golf Coaches Association. The selections of both Heath and Woad to the
First-Team marks the third consecutive season the Seminoles have had at least one player earn All-American First-Team honors. Three-time Beatrice Wallin earned the honor in both 2021 and 2022. It
also marked the second consecutive season Heath has been named to the All-American team by the WGCA. She earned All-American Honorable Mention honors 2022. Woad is the third freshman in school
history to earn All-American First-team honors. Florida State and Wake Forest were the only two teams in the nation to have two golfers earn All-American First-Team honors this season. Florida
State has had at least one golfer earn All-American honors each season since 2016 with five first-team All-Americans during that span. "We are all very excited for Charlotte and Lottie to be
recognized as two of the nation's top players by the WGCA," said Head Coach Amy Bond. "Both players played very well throughout the season. The consistency both players exhibited during the year was
fun to watch. Amazingly, both Charlotte and Lottie finished under par for the entire season, and that's hard to do. They are to be congratulated for being named All-Americans in a year when there
were so many deserving players from around the country." In addition to playing well for the Seminoles, Heath (25th) and Woad (13th) finished in the top 25 in the individual standings in the third
annual Augusta National Women's Amateur Championship in April. Heath, who finished in eighth place in the individual standings at the 2023 NCAA Championship Finals at Grayhawk Golf Club, finished
the 2023 season with a single-season program record 70.56 stroke average. She earned her first career individual championship at the Landfall Tradition in the fall of 2022, and a career-best eight
top-10 finishes. Heath led the Seminoles in stroke average, rounds scored at par or better (24 of 32), and rounds scored of 75 or better (31 of 32). Heath was a combined total of 30 strokes under
par as a junior. "I'm really proud to have earned all American First-Team honors this year, said Heath. "I've been fortunate to earn honorable mention honors previously, so it was definitely a
goal of mine to be on the first team this year. I'm looking forward to coming back in the fall for my last year, and continuing the hard work with my coaches." Woad is the third freshman in school
history to earn All-American First-Team honors joining Caroline Westrup in 2006 and Frida Kinhult in 2019. Woad finished her first season as a Seminole with a 71.06 stroke average - the fourth
lowest single-season scoring average in school history. She led the Seminoles with two individual titles - at the Ivy Intercollegiate and the Florida State Match Up - and tied the school record score
for a single round with a 65 in the second round of the Schooner Fall Classic. Woad led the Seminoles on the scoreboard seven times in 11 matches including at the NCAA Raleigh Regional
Championship. "I am very excited for this honor in my first season at Florida State," said Woad. "Because of our success as a team, this honor is very much a team award and each player on our team
needs to share in this recognition. Many thanks to our coaches - Coach Bond, Coach Duck and Coach Heisey - because they are a driving force behind us as players." Heath and Woad will play in the
Arnold Palmer Cup beginning June 8 at the Laurel Valley Golf Club in Ligonier, Pa. 2023 WGCA 1st Team All-Americans

National Freshman of the Year (co). "It's great for both Charlotte and Lottie to be named All-Americans by both the WGCA and Golfweek," said Head Coach Amy Bond. "Both Charlotte and Lottie are
outstanding golfers and even better people. Our program is blessed to have both players as student-athletes at Florida State. And the best thing - both golfers will be back in our lineup in 2023-24
as our program continues to reach new heights in the ACC and nationally." Heath is one of nine players in the nation-and one of only two from the ACC, who was selected as a First-Team All-American

forward to tomorrow because we all know that we are better than how we played in the second round today. It was a good to kick the rust off; now we look ahead to moving forward." Woad began the
day well with a birdie on her first career hole, and stayed hot throughout the 36 holes played on the first day of the event. She birdied three of her first six holes in the first round and totaled
six birdies in her first round as a Seminole. Woad was in first place after the first 18 holes with her first round score of 5 under par 66. Woad carded three more birdies in the second round,
including birdies on two of her final three holes. She was never more than one stroke over par, and was as many as four strokes under par during the first two rounds as she made her collegiate

Woad finished in a tie for fourth in the individual standings, and the No. 6 ranked Seminole Women's Golf team finished in fourth in the team standings as the 19th Annual Cougar Classic at the Yeamans
Hall Club came to a close. Woad was in contention for the individual title throughout the event, and finished a mere two strokes off of the lead in her first career tournament as a Seminole. Ole
Miss, with three players in the top 15 of the individual standings, win the team championship with a one stroke victory over Clemson. The Seminoles finished second among the six ACC teams in the
tournament. Andrea Lignell of Ole Miss won her first career individual championship with a one stroke win over Mathilde Delavallade of Penn State and Emma Schimpf of the College of Charleston. "It
was our first event out of the gates, and we realize that we have some things to work on," said Head Coach Amy Bond. "I have always felt that the fall is where teams begin to get better, and that's
true for us after this event. We are going to continue to get better - that's our goal and that's what we are going to work towards accomplishing." Woad finished with a 1 under par score of 70 in
the final round and totaled a 7 under par score of 206 in her first career collegiate tournament. She finished with scores of 66-70-70 and was just one of four players in the 96-player field who
carded under par scores in each of three rounds. Woad's three-round total of 206 is tied for the ninth-best tournament score in school history. Woad's tournament score of 206 is the best
three-round tournament score in a player's first tournament in school history. Woad played consistent golf, with two birdies and 17 holes scored at par or better in the third and final round. Her
only blemish over her final 18 holes was a bogey on her 16th hole of the afternoon. Woad birdied her second hole of the round to go under par, and was never at even or above par during the remainder

school record with a 5 under par score of 65 and is in a tie for third place in the individual standings, and the Florida State Women's Golf Team is in first place in the team standings after the
first round of the Schooner Fall Classic at the Belmar Golf Course. Playing in just her second collegiate event, Woad was 4 under par on her final three holes with one eagle and two birdies, to

of Illinois who carded scores of 6 under par 64. Florida State's team score of 13 under par 267 established a school record. The score vs. par of 13 under is just five strokes off of the team
record. The score of 267 is the best score by three strokes in school history. Florida State moved into the team lead as three Seminoles - Woad, Charlotte Heath and Alice Hodge - all carded
birdies on their final holes of the afternoon. The three birdies allowed the Seminoles to move ahead of Oklahoma, the host school for the tournament, which had led the team standings for the majority
of the first round. The Seminoles enter the second round with a one stroke lead over the Sooners. Virginia Tech and Clemson are tied for third in the team standings. "We played a really, really
good round of golf today," said Head Coach Amy Bond. "The expectation was that the wind was going to kick up - but it didn't kick up as hard as it could have. Because of that, the course became very
scoreable. We took advantage of the holes we could, did what we needed to on the hard holes, and snuck in a couple of surprise birdies. "Jacqui (Putrino) played a great first college round. The
wind is supposed to kick up tomorrow. We just have to take advantage when we can." Woad was nearly flawless throughout the round in becoming the first Seminole to card a 65 since Alice Hodge
totaled a 65 in the third round of the 2022 NCAA Tallahassee Regional Championship at the Seminole Legacy Golf Course. She is just the ninth player in school history to card a score of 65. The score
has been achieved 10 times in school history. Woad played especially strong golf on her back nine as she totaled a 5 under par total. She totaled three birdies and her first career eagle in tying
the school record. Woad was five under par on her final seven holes of the round. Woad was one of four Seminoles who finished the round under par. Woad (5 under par 65), Heath (3 under par 67),
Hodge (3 under par 67) and Putrino (2 under par 68) helped the Seminoles finish with a 13 under par team score of 267. The 13 under par score is just five strokes off of the school record of 18 under
par which came during the first round of the 2021 Valspar Augusta Invitational. The Seminoles' score of 267 in Saturday's round is the best single round team score by three strokes in school
history. September 25, 2022 by Chuck Walsh NORMAN, Okla. - Florida State freshman Lottie Woad is
in a tie for fifth place in the individual standings, and the Seminole Women's Golf Team is in first place in the team standings with one round remaining to be played in the Schooner Fall Classic at
the Belmar Golf Club. The Seminoles increased their lead from one stroke to six strokes in round two, and enter the final round of the event with a six stroke lead over Oklahoma and a seven stroke
lead over Houston, who are in second and third places, respectively, in the team standings. The Seminoles' overall score of 552 through the first two rounds of the classic is the best two-round
team score in school history. The previous 36 hole record for a team score was 568 at the 2018 Cougar Classic. Florida State carded a school record for a single round (267) in Saturday's first
round. "The conditions were more difficult today as compared to yesterday," said Head Coach Amy Bond. "But I thought we handled it pretty well and had an overall good day. We extended our lead
and that's one of our goals when we are in this position. "One of our goals is also to play in the final group on the final day and we have accomplished that, too. I think the wind is going to be
a factor again tomorrow and we just have to compete and play the course well like we know we can." Woad carded a 71 on Sunday and is in a tie for fifth place in the individual standings with a
two-round total of 136. She begins play in Monday's final round just three strokes behind the individual leader, Carmen Griffiths of Louisville. Griffiths carded a 5 under par score of 65 and has a

Sunday's second round and is in a tie for 12th place in the individual standings with a two-round total of 138. She is in line for a top-10 finish as she is only five strokes out of the lead and one
stroke out of seventh place. Heath has earned eight career top-10 finishes with her most recent coming at the 2022 ACC Championships. Senior Amelia Williamson finished with the best score of the
round for the Seminoles as she carded an even par score of 70. She has played extremely consistent golf in this event with scores of 70-71 for a two-round total of 141. Williamson carded a
team-leading five birdies on Sunday and improved her individual seeding by 18 places in the standings as she moved from a tie for 48th place after the first round into a tie for 30th place after two
rounds of play. September 26, 2022 by Chuck Walsh NORMAN, Okla. - Florida State won the championship of the Ninth
Annual Schooner Fall Classic with a three-stroke victory over TCU as play in the event at the Belmar Golf Club Came to a close. The Seminoles took the lead in the first round and held it for most of
the remainder of the event to win the Schooner Fall Classic for the second time. Florida State also won the event in 2016. Florida State set the school record for a team score in a three-round
tournament with its 828 team total. The Seminoles' team total broke the school record by one stroke. The previous record of 829, came as Florida State won the 2016 Schooner Fall Classic. Caitlyn
Macnab of TCU won the individual championship with a 10 under par score of 200. She defeated Karisa Chul-Ak-Sorn of Iowa State by one stroke. Florida State's Lottie Woad finished in eighth place

- the tournament co-hosts. The event is held to benefit the OK Kids Korral, a nonprofit group that aids children with cancer and their families. The OK Kids Korral is a "home away from home"
facility where children with cancer and their families can spend time either overnight or during the day, cost-free, while receiving treatment at nearby children's hospitals. Amenities include
overnight suites, daytime rooms, dining areas, game rooms, living rooms, a kitchen, a laundry room, and family resource rooms. It is designed as a relaxing, safe haven. "From start to finish we
played good golf," said Bond. "We played well in a variety of weather conditions on a really good golf course. We didn't get off the best of starts today but we finished well and that showed me that
there's a lot of heart within the girls on our team. I'm ecstatic to win this event because we are playing for the OK Kids Korral - a special place that is very important to me, and to our
program. "I'm happy for this group to get their first win. Congratulations to them for a great week of golf." Freshman Lottie Woad led the Seminoles for a second consecutive tournament as she
finished in eighth place in the individual standings with a 5 under par score of 205. She played her final 17 holes of the tournament at three under par with four birdies and 16 holes played at par

par over her final eight holes and finished as the individual co-champion, and the No. 16 ranked Seminole women's golf team finished in second place in the team standings as the stroke play portion of
the Ivy Intercollegiate was completed in 36 holes at the famed Baltusrol Golf Club. Woad gained her first career win in just her third career start as she finished with a two-round total of 3 under
par 141. She finished tied with North Carolina's Krista Junkkari for the individual lead. Florida State, who was in eighth place in the team standings after the first round of the day, played
spectacular golf in the afternoon round and finished as the only team under par in the second set of 18 holes. The Seminoles' team score of 287 in the second round was the best round of the day by
any of the 12 teams in either round. The Seminoles steadily climbed the team leaderboard as both Woad and teammate Charlotte Heath finished under par for the second round, and in the top 10 of the
individual standings. Woad earned her third career top-10 finish, while Heath finished with a two over par total of 146 and in 10th place in the individual standings. North Carolina won the team
title with a two-round total of 589. The Seminoles combined for a 1-2 ACC finish with a 594 team total. The ACC finished with each of its six teams in the event earning top-eight team finishes.

The top ACC finisher will take on the top Ivy finisher, the second-best ACC finisher will take on the second-best Ivy finisher with a total of 30 matches played. With 30 points up for grabs (each
match counts one point), the conference with the most points will be declared the winner. "We challenged the girls and they came through," said Head Coach Amy Bond. "Each of the girls showed a lot
of heart in the second round after we dug ourselves a hole. They all turned it around, and played through tough conditions with their backs against the wall in the second round." Woad continued to
play extremely consistent golf in just the third event of her Florida State career. She finished tied for the tournament lead with 26 of her 36 holes on the day at scored par and totaled six birdies
in the second round. She earned an even par score of 72 in the first round and totaled a 3 under par total of 69 in the second round. Woad has now totaled four of the first eight rounds of her

day with a total of 146. She birdied her final two holes of the second round and was two under par over her final 13 holes of the day. Heath was never above par in the second round of play. For
her efforts, Heath earned her 10th career top-10 finish, and second this season. She finished in ninth place in the individual standings at last week's Schooner Fall Classic, helping the Seminoles to
their first team championship of the season. Senior Amelia Williamson and freshman Jacqui Putrino carded scores of 74 in the second round and finished in a tie for 24th place and in a tie for 31st
place respectively in the individual standings.
Women's Golf: Heath's Hole In One Leads Seminoles to 5-0 Mark. by Chuck Walsh SPRINGFIELD, N.J. - A hole in one by Charlotte Heath highlighted five
match play wins for the Seminoles on the final day of the Ivy Intercollegiate at the Baltusrol Golf Club. Match play victories by senior Amelia Williamson, juniors Charlotte Heath and Alice Hodge,
and freshmen Jacqui Putrino and Lottie Woad helped the ACC defeat the Ivy League by a 20.5 - 9.5 margin in the 30 match play competitions that were contested on the final day of the tournament. The
Seminoles finished in second place in the team standings in the stroke play portion of the event, which was played Monday. Woad earned her first career victory as she finished as the co-champion in
the individual standings along with North Carolina's Krista Junkkari. "I'll take 5-0 in match play," said Head Coach Amy Bond. "It was great to get the experience of match play this early in the
season. To gain that experience this early in the year will be beneficial for us as we get into the spring and begin preparing for the postseason." Heath's hole in one came during her 4Up victory
over Catherine Rao of Princeton. She began her match against Rao with wins on four of her first five holes. Heath then aced hole No. 10 and never looked back in gaining the point for the ACC. She

sure if it went in, but Amelia was on the hole next to me and saw it go in. It was really cool to have her see it." For Heath it was her third career hole in one, and first as a Seminole. Her
most recent ace came at the Shire Golf Club in the U.K. when she was 16 years old. Heath was one of three Seminoles to win their individual matches by 4UP scores. Also winning by four holes were

Amy Bond. "The increased wind on this course forces you to be diligent in your yardages and club selections. Despite the wind, this was a good start as part of a great field for us. Tomorrow we'll
play with two top-10 teams in San Jose State and Wake Forest, and hopefully we can move up the leaderboard a bit more." Heath finished the first round with a field-tying seven birdies on her way to
a score of 66 or better for the second time in her career. She carded a career-best 65 on the Valspar Invitational in the spring of 2021. Heath birdied two of her first eight holes and was two under

fall for us today," said Head Coach Amy Bond. "It was just one of those days - we didn't do anything great, but we didn't do anything bad. There seemed to be a lid on the holes, which we think bodes
well for tomorrow. We'll see if we can't get more putts to drop into the cup, and make a run and the lead." Heath's even par score of 72 gave her a two-round total of 138 - just one stroke off of

- the longest par 3 by 30 yards on the course, which totals at 190 yards. Moving forward, she went bogeyless the remainder of her entire round, capturing a birdie on No. 17 and making the turn at
even-par. Woad's second nine was when her game caught momentum. She birdied two of her first four holes, then captured two back-to-back birdies on holes 6 and 7 to finish her round at 4-under par.

tomorrow morning. After nine holes, Heath began her second nine with three bogey's in a row, followed by a bogey and her only birdie of the back-nine on hole No. 7. She parred her remaining two
holes to shoot 3-over on the back-nine, resulting in a 1-over par 73 for the first round. Alice Hodge constantly battled through her round, always returning a bogey with a birdie throughout the
day. Her front-nine consisted of this fluency, as she opened up her round with a bogey on No. 13, followed by a birdie on No. 14. The rest of her nine consisted of another pair of a bogey and a
birdie, totaling even-par for Hodge's first nine holes. Hodge kept her back-nine consistent, only allowing one bogey and parring the other eight holes. Her 1-over finish on the second nine totaled
a 1-over par 73 for round one. Kaylah Williams continued her impressive play from the Valspar Augusta Invitational. After shooting a season-low 73 at the Valspar, Williams tied her season-low for a
second time after shooting 1-over (73) in round one of the Match-Up. Williams captured two birdies on her front-nine, only allowing a single bogey to shoot 1-under par on her first nine holes. At
the turn, she opened her back-nine with a bogey, but quickly recuperated with a birdie on the second hole of the nine. Her only double-bogey came on her 14th hole of the day, the 150-yard par 3
fifth hole. She made par on her remaining four holes to finish at 1-over par. Amelia Williamson shot a 3-over par 75 to sit in a tie for 19th place at the end of round one. Her round was off to a
great start as she made par on her opening six holes. It wasn't until the 400-yard par 4 seventh hole when she made her first bogey of the round. Williamson finished bogey, birdie, bogey in her
final three holes of the front-nine to shoot 1-over par. After making the turn, she birdied her 11th hole of the day, but followed the great start with two consecutive bogeys and a final bogey on hole
No. 7. She shot 2-over on her back-nine to finish 3-over par. Katherine Cook opened her round with a birdie on hole No. 10 - the 395-yard par 4. After parring her second hole, she allowed two
bogeys followed by her final birdie of the day on hole No. 17. In three holes, Cook was 4-over par after making a double-bogey on hole No. 3, followed by two back-to-back birdies on holes 4 and 6.
She finished 4-over par (76) and is currently in a tie for 27th place. Madison Hewlett made her collegiate debut as a Seminole in her first tournament at the Florida State Match-Up. Although she
only captured one birdie in her first round, she still managed to shoot an impressive 5-over par 77 in her first-career start. Hewlett shot 3-over on the front-nine followed by an improved
back-nine at 2-over par to total 5-over for round one of the Match-Up. She is currently T32. Florida State leads the 12-team field in birdies and par-4 scoring, averaging 3.94 (-3) by a combination

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - The No. 12 Seminoles took home the Florida State Match-Up team title after shooting a tournament total of even-par (864). Florida State shot rounds of 1-under (287), 3-under (285),
and 4-over (292) to win the annual tournament by 25 strokes, with Augusta falling in second place at 25-over par. This was Florida State's fourth time winning the tournament in its 10 year history.
The Seminoles' own, Lottie Woad, won her second tournament of the season with an individual title claim at the Match-Up after totaling 4-under par with rounds of 68-69-75 (212). Woad walked away
with a two stroke victory in the final round of Florida State's only home tournament of the season. Although Sunday's performance was not Woad's strongest, the cold weather and heavy winds caused
higher scores throughout the entire 65-player field. With three birdies and three bogeys on the front-nine, Woad secured an even-par first nine to remain at the top of the leaderboard at 7-under
par. At the turn, Woad allowed two bogeys on holes 10 and 11, plus another bogey on the 16th hole. Although Woad was unable to capture a birdie on the back-nine, she parred her last two holes to
finish 3-over par for the final round and claim the individual champion title. Charlotte Heath continued her consistent play throughout the Florida State Match-Up, shooting a 1-under par 71 to
place in a tie for third at the event. Heath's only struggle in the three day tournament was on the front-nine. She was unable to break par on her first nine holes, but ultimately used the
back-nine to her advantage to score under par. Heath captured two birdies on the back-nine in the final round to shoot 1-under par on her final nine, along with even-par on the front-nine, to
combine for a 1-under par finish. She totaled 1-under for the entirety of the Match-Up. Amelia Williamson totaled 3-over for the tournament, placing fifth in the individual standings. This marked
her best finish at an event in her fifth year season. After shooting 1-over on the front-nine, Williamson battled through a tough beginning of her final nine. She was 3-over through her first two
holes on the back-nine, starting off bogey, double-bogey. After her first two holes, she birdied hole No. 12, followed by two back-to-back birdies on the 16th and 17th hole. With an even-par
back-nine, she finished 1-over (71) for the final round. Kaylah Williams accomplished a career-best finish at the Florida State Match-Up. Her sixth place finish was her lowest finish in an event
since the 2022 Florida State Match-Up, where she placed tied for 20th at 8-over par. Although Williams' front-nine was not to her utmost capabilities, she captured two birdies and zero bogeys on
the back-nine to shoot 2-under par in her final nine holes. A 2-under par back-nine and 3-over par front-nine put Williams at 1-over for the final round, totaling 4-over for the tournament.
Williams and Heath were the only Seminoles to shoot under par on the back-nine in Sunday's round. Katherine Cook joined teammate Kaylah Williams in achieving a career-best finish at the Match-Up.
Although she played as an individual in the event, she placed in a tie for 7th at 5-over par. With Cook's career-low score coming from yesterday's 1-under par 71, her 1-over par 73 in the final
round placed as a second career best for her as a Seminole. Cook and teammate Lottie Woad each secured three birdies on the front-nine, capturing the most birdies on the front-nine out of all six
Seminoles. Alice Hodge placed T13 after a rough final round. Although Hodge had a birdie on the front-nine, it was not enough to offset the triple and double bogeys she faced. She finished strong
on the back-nine, shooting even-par to finish 5-over for the round. Hodge totaled 8-over par for the Match-Up. Florida State led the 12-team field in birdies (47) and pars (173). They scored the
lowest on par 4's, averaging a 3.99 (-1). The Seminoles had five players leading the field in par 4 scoring, with Woad being the lowest scorer, averaging a 3.90 (-3).

individually through the first 18 holes of the championship. No. 3 seeded Florida State trails No. 8 seeded and tournament host NC State by one stroke and leads No. 2 seeded Arizona State by one
stroke as the Seminoles play for their third consecutive NCAA Regional championship. The Seminoles won the regional championships at Louisville in 2021 and in Tallahassee in 2022. Florida State is
looking to advance out of the Raleigh Regional Championship and into the NCAA Championship Finals for the school-record seventh consecutive time. The top five teams in each of the six NCAA Regionals
(which all began on Monday) will advance to the finals at Grayhawk Golf Club in Scottsdale, Az. (May 19-24, 2023). Each of the NCAA Regional Championships are set for 54 holes. Florida State played
its best golf as a team on the back nine, as the Seminoles' five players recorded nine birdies and only five bogeys after making the turn. The Seminoles totaled nine birdies on the back nine after
carding five on the front side of the course. Throughout the entirety of the first round, the Seminoles totaled 14 birdies and just 12 bogeys - and no scores above a bogey. "We played well and
put together a good round for the first day," said Seminole Head Coach Amy Bond. "We have put ourselves in a position, after the first 18 holes, to accomplish our goals if we continue to play well
for the next two days. We need to continue to play well tomorrow, play shot by shot and be gritty - because that's what it takes to be successful in the postseason." Woad, who is tied for the
individual lead, carded a team-leading five birdies and all of her 18 holes at par or better. She totaled one birdie on her front nine and four after making the turn. Her score of 67 is tied for the
third best single round score in an NCAA Regional Championship by a Seminole, and is a school-record low round in an NCAA Regional Championship by a Florida State freshman. Woad earned scores of
par on her first seven holes, was never over par during the round, and was six strokes under par on her final 11 holes of the round. With a birdie on hole No. 17, Woad was at her first-round best
five strokes under par. "I'm happy with how we played as a team today," said Woad. "Everything was pretty solid as I worked to minimize my mistakes. I'm looking forward to building on how I
played today in tomorrow's round." Heath, who is playing in her third career regional championship, totaled four birdies and was 3 under par over her final 13 holes to card a 2 under par score of
70. She earned two birdies on both sides of the course, and was a total of 4 strokes under par on holes No. 6 through 11. Heath was as many as three strokes under par during the round. She is
currently in a tie for fifth place in the individual standings. Junior Amelia Williamson is in a tie for 20th place in the individual standings after she carded an even par score of 72 in the first
round. She was nearly perfect on the day in finishing at even par - she totaled one birdie, one bogey, and 17 holes scored at par or better. Freshman Madison Hewlett, who is making her first career
NCAA Regional Championship appearance, carded a career-best score of 74 and is in a tie for 34th place in the individual standings. Hewlett totaled three birdies and was a total of 2 under par over
the final six holes of the round with birdies on holes No. 14 and 15. She carded three consecutive holes at par to close the round. Sophomore Kaylah Williams carded one birdie on her way to a
first-round score of 75. Williams has played in a career-high seven matches this season and is playing in her first career NCAA Regional Championship tournament. May 9, 2023 by Chuck Walsh RALEIGH, N.C. - Freshman Lottie Woad is in a tie for fourth place and junior Charlotte Heath is
in a tie for ninth place in the individual standings, and the Florida State Women's Golf team is in sixth place in the team standings after two rounds of the NCAA Raleigh Regional Championship.
Florida State is one of four teams in the 12-team regional with two players in the top-10 of the individual standings with one round remaining to be played in the championship. Florida State is
just one stroke behind both Arizona and Purdue, and just two strokes behind Wake Forest, as just two teams shot below par in the second round, in the battle for one of the coveted top five placings
needed to advance to the NCAA Championship Finals at the Grayhawk Golf Club in Scottsdale, Az. (May 19-24, 2023). NC State, the host school, maintained its first place lead with an even par team
score in the second round. The Wolfpack (570), Arizona State (572). Wake Forest (577), Arizona (578), and Purdue (578) are the top five teams heading into Wednesday's final round. Florida State is
looking to advance out of the Raleigh Regional Championship and into the NCAA Championship Finals for the school-record seventh consecutive time. Dorota Zalewski of Chattanooga, is the individual
leader with a two-round total of 135. She carded a 66 in Tuesday's second round to move into the lead. Zalewski is competing as an individual golfer. "We came out a little flat, and at times, I
think lost our focus," said Head Coach Amy Bond. "Thankfully, we're just nine strokes out of the lead, so it's anybody's game tomorrow. We have to go out and want it; we have to post a strong number
and take it rather than hoping it comes to us." Florida State was led in the second round by senior Amelia Williamson, Heath and Woad who all carded scores of 73. Woad leads the Seminoles with a
two-round total of 140 and is just five stroke behind the lead of Zalewski. Woad began the second round of her first career NCAA Regional with a birdie on the first hole, and totaled two birdies on
her front nine. She closed her round at 1 over par on her final 12 holes of the round to finish with a 1 over par score of 73. She is tied with Julia Misemer of Arizona and Grace Summerhayes of
Arizona State with scores of 140. She is just one stroke out of third, two out of second and five out of the individual lead. Heath maintained her top-10 individual standing with a 1 over par
score of 73 in the second round. She has a two-round total of 143. Heath totaled one birdie in the second round and was perfect with 10 consecutive holes at par to close her round. She is looking
to earn her career best NCAA Regional finish after finishing in a tie for 21st place at the 2022 Tallahassee Regional. Williamson also carded a 73 in Tuesday's second round. She carded two birdies
during the round on consecutive holes - No. 10 and 11 - and was never more than one stroke over par during the round. Williamson has earned three top-25 regional championship finishes, including a
tied for second place finish at the Louisville Regional in 2021. May 10, 2023 by Chuck Walsh RALEIGH,
N.C. - The Florida State Women's Golf team finished in fifth place at the NCAA Raleigh Regional Championship at the Lonnie Poole Golf Course and has advanced to the NCAA Championship Finals for a
school-record seventh consecutive year. The Seminoles have played in the championship finals in each year since 2016 (there was no championship in 2020) and have now finished in the top five of seven
consecutive regional championship. Florida State finished the third and final round of the regional championship with a 3 over par team score of 291 and totaled a 6 over par score of 870 for the
54-hole tournament. As one of the teams who played in the first wave of the round, the Seminoles completed their round, then had to wait anxiously for the entire field to finish play to officially
punch their ticket to the NCAA Championship Finals. No. 3 seeded Florida State finished just three strokes ahead of Purdue for the fifth and final spot in the final team standings. "I'm very proud
of the way each player on our team played today," said Head Coach Amy Bond. "It wasn't easy, but ultimately they did what they had to do to get into the top five." NC State, the host team, won
their first ever NCAA Regional Championship. The Wolfpack finished just two strokes ahead of Arizona for the regional championship. Wake Forest finished third, with TCU completing play in fourth and
the Seminoles earning the fifth spot. Dorota Zalweski of Chattanooga won the individual title with a 12 under par score of 204. Freshman Lottie Woad led the Seminoles as she finished in a tie for
seventh place in the individual standings with a 2 under par score of 214. She carded scores of 67-73-74 to earn her eight top-10 finish in her 10 events this year. Senior Amelia Williamson finished
in a tie for 12th place with a three-round total of even par 216 and junior Charlotte Heath finished in a tie for 15th place with a 1 over par score of 217. Williamson led the Seminoles on the
final day with a 1 under par score of 71. She was exceedingly consistent over the course of the final round with two birdies, 17 holes played at par or better and only one bogey. Williamson birdied
her third hole of the round and stayed under par for the remainder of the round. She was 2 under par over her first 11 holes and closed the round with six consecutive holes scored at par.
Williamson totaled scores of 72-73-71 for her score of 216. She has now earned three top-12 NCAA Regional finishes in her stellar postseason Florida State - tied for 12th at Raleigh (2023), tied for
ninth at Tallahassee (2022) and tied for second at Louisville (2021). Williamson will make her school-record tying fourth NCAA Championship Finals appearance at the Grayhawk Golf Club in Scottsdale,
Az.(May 19-24). Woad finished as Florida State's leading golfer for the seventh time, and finished with an under par tournament score, also for the seventh time. She finished with a team-high four
birdies in the final round (11 for the championship) and will play in her first career NCAA Finals event. Woad finished in a tie for seventh place in the final individual standings - the eighth
top-10 finish of her freshman season. Heath, who was playing in her third career regional championship, earned her best career regional finish at tied for 16th. She carded scores of 70-73-74 for a
1 over par total of 217. Heath finished in a tie for 21st place in the NCAA Tallahassee Regional Championship in 2022. Florida State's most impressive score of the final round was carded by
sophomore Kaylah Williams who finished with an even par score of 72 - a total that tied her career-best score. She was on fire on her front nine with four birdies and was 4 strokes under par when she
made the turn. Alice Hodge, who was inserted into Florida State's lineup for the third and final of the regional, carded a 74. "Anytime that your team is still playing at this time of the year,
it's pretty special," said Bond. We've had our ups and downs this year but we now have a shot at winning a national championship. This is the position each of our girls has worked so hard to reach.
I am very proud of this group of girls."

Woad is in a tie for 10th place in the individual standings, and the No. 8 seed Florida State Women's Golf Team is in a tie for seventh place in the team standings after the first round of the NCAA
Division I Championship Finals at the Grayhawk Country Club. Woad carded a 2 under par score of 70 and is within four strokes of the individual leader, while the Seminoles are tied with Duke and
Stanford, and only nine strokes behind the team leader. The field of 30 will play three full rounds (Friday, Saturday and Sunday) before the field is cut, and the top 15 teams play in a fourth and
final stroke play round. After the four rounds of stroke play, the top eight teams will play three rounds of match play to determine the national championship team for the 2023 season. Wake Forest
from the ACC is in first place in the team standings with a 9 under par total of 279. The Demon Deacons lead second-place Oklahoma State by one stroke. Woad, who was announced as one of five

especially after we made the turn and the wind kicked up," said Head Coach Amy Bond. "Each of the girls fought throughout the entire round, and I'm proud of all of them for their play today. We'll
take even par in the first round. We need to get some food in them, and some rest because tomorrow comes quickly." Woad, the ACC Freshman of the Year, totaled three birdies and 17 holes scored at
par or better in her first NCAA Championship round. She birdied her second hole of the round and was at even par when she moved to the front nine. Woad birdied two of her first three holes of the
front, and closed the round with five consecutive holes at par to finish at 70. Woad's round of 70 is the best first round by a Seminole in the NCAA Championship Finals since Morgane Metraux also
carded a 70 in the first round of the NCAA Championship Finals in 2018. Metraux (in 2018) and Beatrice Wallin (in 2021) both hold the Florida State record for a single round score in the NCAA
Championship Finals with scores of 68. Junior Charlotte Heath, who was named as one of 10 finalists for the ANNIKA Award as the nation's top player on Monday, carded a 1 under par score of 71. She

South Carolina, Texas, and Oklahoma State are the top five teams in the standings. Lauren Walsh of Wake Forest holds the individual led with consecutive rounds of 67 and a 36-hole total of 134. She
holds a one stroke lead over Catherine Park of Southern California. "We showed a lot of guts today," said Head Coach Amy Bond. "We didn't have our best stuff to begin the day, but we finished
well, and have given ourselves a shot. Amelia played unreal golf today; she played her best round of the year. She really got it going; she hit some great golf shots and made some putts."
Williamson carded a season-low and postseason career-best score of 68 in the second round. She totaled a team-high six birdies and 16 holes scored at par or better. She birded her fourth hole of the
round to move below par, where she stayed for the remainder of the round. Williamson was 4 under par on her back nine, and a total of 2 under par on her final six holes of the round. Williamson began
the day in a tie for 66th place in the individual standings, and improved her individual placement by 42 spots. "My approach play and wedges worked well for me today," said Williamson. "My birdies
came from close approach shots. After the rough start today for the team, we are excited that we brought it back, and are in a good position heading into tomorrow." Williamson has earned eight
birdies in her first two rounds. Her score of 68 is her best in her six career NCAA Championship Finals rounds, and is her best score since earning a 68 in the second round of the Florida State Match
Up during the spring of 2022. Heath carded her second consecutive score of 71 and enters the third round of play with a 36-hole total of 142. She totaled three birdies in the second round and was

day and finished the round one under with three birdies and eight holes scored at par on her final 12 holes of the round. "These are the best two rounds we've played at Grayhawk," said Bond. "The
conditions have been ideal." May 21, 2023 by Chuck Walsh SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. - Florida State is
in fifth place in the team standings and has advanced to the fourth and final round of stroke play at the NCAA Division I Women's Golf Championships at the Grayhawk Golf Club. The Seminoles begin
play on Monday looking to maintain their place in the top eight of the team standings in order to advance to the match play round for the second consecutive year. The match play semifinals begin on
Tuesday. Three rounds of match play will be contested on Tuesday and Wednesday to determine the 2023 NCAA Division I team champion. Florida State's fifth place finish is the best three-round
finish in program history at the NCAA Championship Finals after finishing in sixth place in 2022. The Seminoles are just one of five teams along with Stanford, LSU, Texas and South Carolina to
advance to the fourth and final stroke play round in each of the last three season. Florida State has finished in the top 12 of the stroke play portion of the NCAA Championship Finals in each of the
last five tournaments (T12th, 2018; 12th, 2019; 8th, 2020; 6th, 2022; 5th, 2023). "That was a really, really good round of golf by each member of our team," said Head Coach Amy Bond. "That was a
tough day of golf. The hole locations were the most difficult they have been, and the greens were as firm as they've been all week. It's great to be playing another day - it's the only way you can
win a national championship. We've gone from one in 266 (NCAA Division I teams) to begin the season, to one in 30 to begin the week, and now we are one of 15 who can win a national championship."
Senior Charlotte Heath is in a tie for sixth place in the individual standings with a three-round total of 5 under par 211. She carded a 3 under par score of 69 in Sunday's third round. Heath tied
her tournament best with five birdies in the third round to raise her total to 13 birdies in the first three rounds of the championship. She carded a birdie on her third hole of the round to go under
par and stayed under par for the remainder of the round. Heath earned birdies on three of her first nine and two of her final six holes. "That was a special round of golf played by Charlotte
today," said Bond. "She made putts when she had to, and I know she is happy with where her game is right now." Heath was announced last week as a finalist for the ANNIKA Award as the nation's top
player. Heath's round of 69 marked the third player who has carded the low round for the Seminoles in the first three rounds of the championship - Lottie Woad with a 70 in the first round, Amelia
Williamson with a 68 in the second round, and Heath's 69 in the third round. "Our play this week has been a total team effort," said Bond. "We've had a different player with the low round in each
of the first three rounds. That's truly the epitome of this team, and I'm very proud of the girls for how they've approached this championship." "We've played well so far this week," said Heath.
"But, this tournament is not over yet. We are trying to keep on getting better as the week goes on." Freshman Lottie Woad carded an even par 72 and is through the first three rounds with an even
par score of 216. She is in a tie for 25th place in the individual standings. Woad carded two birdies and 17 holes at par or better in Sunday. She was 2 under par with two birdies on her final six
holes of the round. Woad was named as one of 10 finalists for the National Freshman of the Year awarded by the WGCA. Florida State's Amelia Williamson, the lone senior in the Seminoles' lineup,
carded a third round score of 75 and finished the first three rounds with a 1 over par score of 271. She is in a tie for 30th place. Freshman Madison Hewlett carded her second consecutive score of
73 - her second of back-to-back scores that counted toards the Seminoles' overall team score. May
22, 2023 by Chuck Walsh SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. - No. 6 seed Florida State will face No. 3 seed Wake Forest in the quarterfinals of match play on Tuesday beginning at 9:20 a.m. (ET) as the Seminoles
finished in sixth place in stroke play at the NCAA Division I Championship Finals at the Grayhawk Golf Club. The Seminoles advanced to match play for the second consecutive season with its
program-best tying sixth place finish in four rounds of stroke play. It marks the second consecutive year the Seminoles have finished in a program-best sixth place during stroke play and advanced to
match play at the National Championship Finals. The Seminoles are one of just three teams - Florida State, Stanford, and Texas A&M - who have advanced to match play in the NCAA Championship Finals
in the last two seasons. Stanford finished in first place in stoke play and earned the No. 1 seed in match play. The Cardinal was followed by No 2 seed Texas, No. 3 Wake Forest, No. 4 South
Carolina, No. 5 seed Southern California, No. 6 seed Florida State, No. 7 seed Texas A&M and No. 8 seed Pepperdine in the final team standings. Sophomore Rose Zhang of Stanford won her second
consecutive NCAA individual title. She carded a four-round score of 10 under par 278 - a score that included an 8 under par score of 64 in the second round. "I'm extremely proud of all of the
girls," said Head Coach Amy Bond. "They all dug deep and got the job done. The big thing about playing in this round is making pars and doing what you need to do to manage the course. That's what
we did today." Florida State's four round team score of 1,155 now stands as the school record for a four-round team score in the NCAA Championship Finals. The Seminoles' 2023 score eclipses the
former school record of 1,174 strokes in 2021 by an amazing 19 strokes. Junior Charlotte Heath finished in a tie for eighth place with a 6 under par score of 282 to mark the best individual
national finish of her career. He score of 282 and her 6 strokes under total are both Florida State records for the NCAA Championship Finals. She carded a 1 under par score of 71 in the fourth
round and finished as one of only three players who finished with four scores of under par golf in the during stroke play. Heath's scores of 71-71-69-71 put the ANNIKA Award finalist in select
company with Lucia Lopez-Ortega of San Jose State (68-69-71-71) and Chayse Gomez of Oregon State (71-71-70-71) as the only players in the field who carded four scores of under par golf. Heath's
tied for eighth place individual finish is the second best finish in Florida State NCAA Championship history. Morgane Metraux, who finished in a tie for fifth place in 2018, holds the school record
for highest individual NCAA Finals finish in school history. Heath is now one of four players in school history with a top-10 finish in the NCAA Finals - Metraux in 2018, Heath in 2023, Beatrice
Wallin (tie for ninth) in 2021, and Frida Kinhult (tied for 10th) in 2019. "I was a little disappointed with today as my putts just didn't drop," said Heath. "I was happy with my ball striking
today as I haven't had my best stuff all week. I'm super excited for our team to advance into match play. It'll be the second time in school history and I'm proud to be a part of that for our
program." Bond continued to be impressed with the play of her three-time ACC selection. "I thought Charlotte played well again today," said Bond. "Overall, she gutted the round out. She has
worked hard and has played a great four days of golf. She's definitely taking advantage of her wedges, and taking what the course is giving her. Honestly, I don't think she's played her best golf
yet." Senior Amelia Williamson (even par 72 on Monday) and freshman Lottie Woad (1 over par 73 on Monday) finished in a tie for 31st place in the individual standings with scores of 1 over par
289. Florida State advanced to match play for the first time at the NCAA Championship Finals in 2022 as the No. 6 seed where they lost a close 3-2 decision to No. 3 seed Texas A&M. Three current
Seminoles - Alice Hodge, Amelia Williamson and Charlotte Heath - played against the Aggies last season. "It's incredible to have the opportunity to face Wake Forest, a team that we obviously know
very well," said Bond. "To advance we have to beat great teams at this point. We're going to continue to keep plugging away and work on playing our best golf at the most important time of the
year."
