Where Were They Then: ACC Women

Random facts, the "B" in Susan B. Anthony is for Brownell. Brownell Middle School is located in Grosse Point Farms, Michigan. Their athletic teams are called the Broncos. On October 11, 2013, the Western Michigan (Broncos) women's soccer team tied the Miami Hurricane's 0-0 in Kalamazoo, Michigan. The Miami Hurricane's play in the Atlantic Athletic Conference. And that is how we get from Susan B. Anthony to ACC Women's Golf.

This week, I'm taking a look at current Power 5 college golf program rosters and looking at their junior rankings. Today we start with the ACC.

Duke has won 22 of the 32 conference titles, along with 6 national titles. Perhaps that is one reason why their 7 player roster below is full of highly ranked players. They were also one of four ACC teams to make Nationals last spring at Grayhawk, joining Florida State, Virginia Tech, and Wake Forest. Take a look at each of the 12 teams below and see where their players were ranked when they were in junior golf (and/or their WAGR ranking through their college career until this point).

You will see below the players, their college class (which, with the Covid-19 extra year...makes this very fluid), and their hometown which I would say are self-explanatory, but perhaps I should circle back to the "Class" column. This is what the schools have listed. SR+ indicates a player who should exhaust their playing eligibility following the 2021-22 season. You could see some "SR" play next year, too...again, Covid has made this difficult to follow.

The next columns might need some more explanation. The "Jr Class" column is the player's high school graduation class year. "Rank Date" indicates (roughly) the date of each ranking used. For instance, 6/2017 is June 2017 rankings. I am showing rankings for June 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021 as well as WAGR rankings from mid-November of 2021. WAGR equals World Amateur Golf Rankings. This is the ranking used by the USGA and R&A. (Note: US Junior WAGR rankings began to decline in 2020 with the Power Method changes the R&A and USGA made to their ranking). JGS is Junior Golf Scoreboard class rankings, not overall, but class. AJGA is the Rolex/AJGA class ranking. And GW are...yep, the Golfweek class rankings. Those are the 3 rankings coaches and tournaments use. (I am frequently asked my opinion on which is the best ranking system. But, in my opinion, you really have to look at all 3. They all have some positives and negatives. Although, Lance Ringler with Golfweek does make a strong case why points-based rankings are inferior...but I'm not going to go into that).

Enjoy.
