COMMUNITY SERVICE/TOBY KEITHWhen Tricia Covel, the wife of country music mega-star Toby Keith, came up with the idea of starting a golf tourna-ment to raise funds for the OK Kids Korral for pediatric can-cer patients, they brought 12 invitations to the Women’s Golf Coaches Association’s Annual Conference in 2012. When one of those 12 invitations was presented to Seminole head coach Amy Bond, she knew she had hit the jackpot.
“I was so excited for our program to have been chosen as one of the schools to play in the inaugural Schooner Fall Clas-sic in 2013,” said Bond. “It is truly an honor to play in this event; one that I and the members of my team look forward to each season. The tournament has developed into one of the top events in women’s college golf but, truthfully, it’s about so much more than three great days on the golf course.”
The Toby Keith Foundation was started in 2006 and supports the OK Kids Korral – a 25,000 square foot facility in Oklahoma City. The Korral is dedicated exclusively to serving the needs of pediatric can-cer patients. This cost-free home away from home facility has 16 guest suites, a gourmet kitchen, playground and an indoor theatre.

COMMUNITY SERVICETh e Florida State University women’s golf team has won the prestigious Athletic Director’s Cup for Community Service in 13 of the last 1 years. Th e award is presented each year at the Golden ‘Nole Banquet – one of the most important banquets of the year for all of Florida State’s student athletes.
Th e Athletic Director’s Cup for Service began during the 1996-1997 academic year in order to promote community service participa-tion among all teams. Th e annual award recognizes the thousands of hours of community service Florida State student-athletes donate each year. Seminole student-athletes logged more than 6,100 com-munity service hours in 2016 - an increase of 500 hours from last year.
“Community service is very important to my teammates and me,” said senior Sherrell Buckley. “We make it a point to give back to the com-munity ay time we have the chance. We are so very fortunate to be able to be student-athletes at Florida State and play the sport we love as Semi-noles. With this privilege comes the responsibility to help others. We have the chance to help infl uence young lives in our community and we like to take advantage of every opportunity we have to help other.”
During the 2015-16 school year, the women’s golf team combined for 287 total hours of community ser-vice for an average of over 26.0 hours per team member.
“Giving back to the community of one of the most rewarding things we do as a team,” said head coach Amy Bond. “We are very blessed to be members of the Florida State community and everyone is very supportive of us. It’s nice to have the opportunity to spend time with others and raise funds for special causes. Th e best thing about serv-ing our community is being in the community and encouraging to-getherness. We enjoy that aspect of being members of the FSU fam-ily and make giving our time to others a regular part of our schedule.”
Th e women’s golf team annually participates in the Tee Off for Tots Tournament presented by the Tallahassee Memorial Hospital Healthcare Foundation. Th e Seminoles help raise charitable gift s and sponsorships that positively infl uence the medical outcomes of thousands of thou-sands of infants, children and their families. Th e annual event is held at Golden Eagle Country Club in Tallahassee and is in its 23rd year of raising money for those families in need of support for young children.
Consistency. It is the mark of true excellence in any endeavor.
However, in today’s intercollegiate athletics, competition has become so balanced and so competitive that it is virtually impossible to maintain a high level of consistency.
Yet the Atlantic Coast Conference has defi ed the odds. Now in its 65th year of competition, the ACC has long enjoyed the reputation as one of the strongest and most competitive intercollegiate conferences in the nation. And that is not mere conjecture, the numbers support it.
Since the league’s inception in 1953, ACC schools have captured 150 national championships, including 75 in men’s competition and 74 in women’s and one in men’s and women’s fencing. In addition, NCAA individual titles have gone to ACC student-athletes 169 times in men’s competition and 134 times in women’s action.
In the sport of women’s golf, Duke is second in all-time NCAA championships with its six titles (1999, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2014), only trailing Arizona State’s eight. Miami claimed one NCAA national title in 1984, before joining the ACC. Duke is third in NCAA individual champions, claiming four national medalists - Candy Hannemann (2001), Virada Nirapathpongporn (2002), Anna Grzebien (2005) and Virginia Elena Carta (2016).
Th e conference recognized women’s golf as a conference sport in 1984-1986 when a minimum of four teams (Duke, North Carolina, NC State and Wake Forest) competed. Aft er a fi ve-year hiatus, women’s golf became a sponsored sport once again in 1992 with Duke, Florida State, North Carolina and Wake Forest competing. NC State joined in 2001.
Duke has won 20 ACC championships, followed by Wake Forest (fi ve), Virginia (two) and North Carolina (two). Duke leads the schools in ACC individual championships with 17, followed by Wake Forest (seven), Virginia (two) and North Carolina (two). Duke held off Florida State to win the 2017 ACC team championship while Leona Maguire of Duke won the individual title.
Florida State fi nished in a program record tying second place in 2017 – the fourth time in school history the Seminoles had fi nished in second place in the ACC Championships. Th e second place fi nish marked the best fi nish under seventh-year head coach Amy Bond. Florida State has now fi nished in the top-fi ve of the ACC Championships fi ve times in seven years under Bond including three fourth place fi nishes in 2012, 2013 and 2015
An ACC-record 10 women’s golf teams (Clemson, Duke, Florida State, Louisville, Miami, Notre Dame, North Carolina, NC State, Virginia and Wake Forest) were represented at the NCAA Regionals in 2016. Th e ACC sent eight teams to the NCAA Division I Championship in 2017.
Th e 12 schools that will carry the ACC banner this season have produced 81 fi rst or second team All-Americans, six National Player of the Years, fi ve WGCA Division I Players of the Year, four national Freshmen of the Year and six National Coaches of the Year.
