AUBURN, Ala. – Auburn's Megan Schofill and Casey Weidenfeld are both featured on the 2022-23 All-American Scholar Team, the Women's Golf Coaches Association announced this week.
Schofill, who graduated with a degree in Business in May, was also given Academic All-America honors by the College Sports Communicators and was named to the Spring SEC Academic Honor Roll after the season. The Monticello, Florida native now joins Kelli Murphy as the only Auburn players to be named All-American Scholars by the WGCA on four occasions. Schofill finished her undergraduate degree with a 3.87 cumulative GPA.
On the course, Schofill had a memorable senior season by posting the second lowest season scoring average in program history at 71.67. The senior also broke the program record for most career rounds under par during the season (43) and continues to hold the program's lowest career scoring average (72.14).
She also posted a runner-up individual finish at the 2023 SEC Championship and her 205 (-11) at the Illini Women's Invitational at Medinah in the fall tied her for the second all-time lowest 54-hole score in Auburn history and her second round 65 (-7) at the event tied the second lowest 18-hole score in program history.
Weidenfeld, a creative writing major, picked up her first WGCA All-American Scholar honor after posting a 4.00 cumulative GPA through the spring semester. The redshirt freshman was also named to the Spring SEC Academic Honor Roll following the season.
The Penbroke Pines, Florida native broke 60 four times during the 2022-23 season and recorded a perfect 3-0 record in match play events. Weidenfeld was named SEC Freshman of the Week in November after her performance at the 2022 East Lake Cup and became the 10th Auburn golfer to be named to the SEC All-Freshman team.
After using a redshirt during the 2021-22 season, Weidenfeld made an immediate impact in her first competitive season with the Tigers, as she started in the Auburn lineup for all nine team events and recorded five top-20 individual finishes.
To be selected to the WGCA All-American Scholar Team, a student-athlete must have an overall cumulative grade point average of 3.50 or higher, be an amateur on the team's roster through the conclusion of the team's season and have played in half of the college's regularly scheduled competitive rounds during the year through the team's conference championship. The 2022-23 team featured 1,401 women's collegiate golfers from 378 college programs.
