"I'm proud of the effort my team gave this semester and at this championship. It has been a challenging year dealing with COVID and all the restrictions placed on them throughout the season and they handled it well. We were also missing a couple of our international players who opted to stay home for the season and knew we would have our hands full with the team Seminole had this year. These players handled the week with style, and I am proud of them and their overall performance," stated Coach Laura Brown.
Daytona State College hosted the NJCAA National Championship at Plantation Bay Golf and Country Club. The event hosted 114 participants with 34 schools represented overall. Our Lady Falcons have won 10 NJCAA National Championships to date and are the winningest team in NJCAA Women's Golf history.
