Aces Excel In The Classroom And On The Course

The Women’s Golf Coaches Association (WGCA) All-American Scholars were announced with a total of 1,401 women’s collegiate golfers recognized with this prestigious honor.

The criteria for selection to the All-American Scholar Team are some of the most stringent in all of college athletics. The minimum cumulative GPA is 3.50. Five members of the University of Evansville women’s golf team earn the award including senior Lexie Sollman, junior Sophia Rohleder, sophomores Alyssa McMinn and Caitlin O’Donnell along with freshman Allison Enchelmayer.

“To have five of our players earn All-American Scholar recognition is such an honor for our program,” UE head golf coach Jim Hamilton said.  “I could not be more proud of the girls for what they have been able to achieve in the classroom and on the course.”

Sollman, a Public Health major from nearby Fort Branch, Ind., has notched a 3.698 GPA.  She played in 14 rounds as a senior with a season-low score of 76 coming at Butler.  Rohdleder, who is a native of Evansville, stands with a 3.658 GPA while majoring in Biology.  She registered the lowest stroke average for the Aces in her junior season, finishing the season at 76.83.  In the ASU Spring Classic, Rohleder finished in third place to help the Aces earn the team championship.

Sophomore Alyssa McMinn has accumulated a 3.819 GPA in her work in Exercise Science at UE.  McMinn registered a season-best 5th place finish at the ASU Spring Classic.  Fellow sophomore Caitlin O’Donnell is also an Exercise Science major who has a 3.55 GPA.  She also excelled in the ASU Spring Classic, coming home in fourth place.

Wrapping the UE honorees is freshman Allison Enchelmayer, who has a 3.8 GPA in her work as a Music Education major.  Enchelmayer had the second-lowest stroke average on the squad with an 80.17.
