1971 DGWS Intercollegiate Championships 1981 AIAW National Championships Georgia hosted the Division of Girls’ and Women’s Sports (DGWS) Intercollegiate Championship on June 15-19, 1971. A total of 89 individuals from 51 schools competed, with UCLA and Stanford’s Shelly Hamlin earning team and individual titles, respectively. A decade later, 25 teams and 141 individuals took part in the Association for Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW) National Championship in Athens on June 17-20, 1981. Georgia’s Terri Moody (right) edged Miami’s Patti Rizzo in a three-hole playoff for the individual title and received the championship trophy from legendary UGA coach and administrator Liz Murphey (left). Florida State prevented a Bulldog sweep by besting Georgia by three strokes to win the team crown.

1993 NCAA Championships
The UGA Golf Course hosted the 1993 NCAA Championships from May 26-29. Hometown hero Vicki Goetze drew large galleries (below) to follow her attempt to win a second straight individual national title. The previous year, Goetze shot a final round 67 to surge past Arizona’s Annika Sorentam and win the NCAA crown as a freshman. In Athens, Charlotta Soremstam (left) of Texas, Annika’s sister, derailed Goetze’s pursuit of back-to-back crowns. Arizona State won the team title, with Georgia placing fourth and Goetze fifth.
1983 NCAA Championships The second-ever NCAA Championships were contested in Athens on May 25-28, 1983. Penny Hammel of Miami (left) secured medalist honors and TCU claimed the team national title. Sophomore Cindy Schreyer placed a respectable 26th, helping Georgia to a thirdplace showing. A year later, UGA again hosted the NCAAs; however, that event was held at Innisbrook Resort in Tarpon Springs, Fla. There, Schreyer (right) became Georgia’s second national titlest in four years after besting SMU’s Martha Foyer and Miami’s Michele Berteotti in a threehole playoff.
Site Of 5 Women’s National Championships In May 2013, the NCAA Championships will return to the UGA Golf Course for the first time in two decades. The UGA layout, traditionally ranked among the top-10 university golf courses in the nation, is sure to be in championship form. Georgia, which has recorded 20 top-10 national finishes in the past 34 years, will look to end a three-year dry spell of missing the NCAA team field.

Coach & Player Interviews
The Bulldogs generally practice beginning at 2 p.m. on weekdays. The best time to interview head coach Josh Brewer or any golfer is usually immediately before practice. Class schedules of players may alter their availability on any given day. The team typically conducts practice sessions at the Boyd Golf Center; however, the location may vary to other Athens-area courses. To ensure interview requests are addressed expeditiously, please contact the UGA Sports Communications office at least 24 hours in advance.
Directions to the UGA Golf Course
• From the Athens Bypass (Ga. Highway 10) take the Milledge Avenue exit. If traveling from the east side of Athens, take a left at the bottom of the ramp (and proceed underneath the bypass). If traveling from the West, take a right at the bottom of the ramp (going away from the bypass). • Travel approximately one-half mile on Milledge and make the first left onto Riverbend Parkway. (If you reach the Georgia soccer/ softball complex on your right, you’ve gone too far.) • Proceed approximately one-half mile and make a right into the entrance to the UGA course. • Follow the road past the driving range (on your left) and into the large parking lot. The Boyd Center is located closest to the front left corner of the parking lot, while the clubhouse for the UGA Golf Course is located closest to the lot’s front right corner.

Liz Murphey Tribute A true pioneer in women’s athletics
Liz Murphey was one of the leading figures in the evolution and development of women’s intercollegiate athletics both on the national level and at the University of Georgia. A Newnan, Ga., native, Murphey was not only an outstanding women’s golf coach but also led the overall Lady Bulldog women’s sports program to prominence in the 1980s and 1990s as its senior woman administrator. She died November 23, 2005, following a short illness. “Liz was certainly one of the national pioneers in women’s athletics and one that provided the real foundation for the program here at Georgia,” said former UGA Director of Athletics Vince Dooley. “Her work at Georgia was recognized across the country both as an administrator and golf coach.” Murphey joined the university faculty in 1967 as an assistant professor of physical education and women’s golf coach. She coordinated the women’s club sports program until being named assistant athletic director for women’s sports in 1978. When UGA officially added women’s golf as an intercollegiate sport in the fall of 1978, Murphey already had a solid foundation in place. She led the Lady Bulldogs to 21 team and 18 individual titles from 1978-86.
Under Murphey, Georgia finished in the top 10 at each national championship from 1979-83, including second at the 1981 AIAWs and third at the 1983 NCAAs. Additionally, Terri Moody and Cindy Schreyer won individual national titles in 1981 and 1984, respectively. Murphey was the first-ever NGCA National Coach of the Year in 1984, and she was a charter member of that organization’s Hall of Fame. Two of her most prestigious honors were the 1996 Rolex Meritorious Service Award for her contributions to collegiate golf and a Lifetime Achievement Award from the National Association of Collegiate Women’s Athletic Adminstators in 2003. Under her leadership, Georgia won eight of the 14 SEC women’s all-sports awards, secured four national team championships and captured an additional 31 individual national titles. Murphey retired from the University in May 1996. She was inducted into the UGA Athletic Association’s Circle of Honor – the school’s highest tribute paid to former athletes or coaches – in 2001. Her legacy lives on each spring. For more than three decades, Georgia has hosted the Liz Murphey Collegiate Classic, appropriately one of the nation’s oldest women’s collegiate athletic events in any sport.
Liz’s Legacy
Liz Murphey’s fingerprints are still very much a part of UGA women’s athletics. Murphey hired current UGA women’s head coaches Jack Bauerle (swimming and diving), Andy Landers (basketball) and Jeff Wallace (tennis), as well as the recently retired Suzanne Yoculan (gymnastics). That quartet has combined to lead 16 teams to NCAA Championships and 42 squads to SEC Championships in their respective sports. She also brought in Beans Kelly as her assistant coach in 1986 and handed the reins to the golf program over shortly thereafter. Kelly led Georgia to eight SEC titles and eight top-10 finishes at the NCAAs.
Putting UGA On the map
Hosting the 1981 AIAW Nationals was perhaps Liz Murphey’s finest hour as a coach and administrator. Terri Moody (upper right) captured the first-ever national title in UGA women’s athletics history and the Lady Bulldogs finished second in the team field (right).

HEad Coach
Josh Brewer
1st season at the University of Georgia ◊ 11th season as a collegiate coach, 1st as a head coach ◊ Indiana ’98 Josh Brewer’s experiences with collegiate athletics had a storybook ending...or so he thought. As a senior at Indiana University, Brewer birdied the final two holes to finish second individually and help the Hoosiers secure a one-stroke victory at the 1998 Big Ten Championships. While Brewer did not know so at the time, the event was the final tournament in both his career and that of legendary coach Sam Carmichael. “That was the last year that a conference championship didn’t earn you an automatic bid to the NCAAs,” Brewer said. “We were ‘on the bubble’ and thought winning the Big Tens would get us in, but it didn’t. Obviously, I was disappointed at the time, but to look back at it now, it was a pretty neat way to wrap up my career as a college golfer.” After winning the 1998 Indiana State Amateur crown later that summer, Brewer quickly moved into the business world. He accepted a position as a financial advisor with Linsco/Private Ledger in Indianapolis. Three falls later, Mike Mayer, who moved from assistant to head coach of the IU men’s team after Carmichael retired and also Brewer’s childhood golf instructor, asked him to return to campus to share his experiences in golf and school and the transition to professional life with the current team. “I just really enjoyed the interaction with the student-athletes,” Brewer said. “On the way home, my wife Selena said she hadn’t seen me that happy in a while. She suggested that college coaching might be something I should explore.” Chalk one up for the wife.
Going Back To Bloomington
Brewer agreed and planted a seed with Mayer to keep him in mind if he heard of any coaching opportunities. Ironically, an opening as assistant coach at Indiana arose soon thereafter and Brewer in March 2002 returned to his alma mater – where he had been an All-Big Ten and Academic All-Big Ten performer. “I couldn’t be more thrilled to have had Josh come back to the Hoosier family,” Mayer said. “Having been affiliated with this golf program for 18 years, I can honestly say that Josh was the hardest worker I have ever seen. Josh brings a level of intensity to this program that has been vital to our success. He accepts nothing less than perfection.” Brewer helped the Hoosiers enjoy very solid success over the next six seasons. Indiana was represented in NCAA competition each of his six campaigns with the team. After competing in NCAA Regionals in 2004, 2005 and 2006, the Hoosiers returned to the NCAA Championships as a team in 2008, their first appearance since Brewer’s sophomore year in 1996. All told, Brewer helped coach two All-Americans, three Big Ten Players of the Year honorees, two Palmer Cup members, one Walker Cup member and four scholastic All-Americans.
On To Southern Cal
In 2008, Brewer ventured from his Midwestern roots to become assistant coach for both the men’s and women’s golf teams at Southern Cal. Brewer and both golf programs thrived in L.A.
Over the next four seasons, Brewer help produce two PAC10 Championships teams and golfers who won National Player of the Year, National Freshman of the Year, 12 All-America certificates, three PAC-10 Player of the Year awards and two PAC-10 Freshman of the Year accolades. In addition, USC had two Curtis Cup and two Palmer Cup golfers.

The quintet of coaches
In 1986, Beans Kelly, a member of Bulldog teams that finished fourth and third at the 1982 and 1983 national championships, respectively, took the reins from her mentor and continued to build upon the foundation Liz Murphey established. During Beans’ tenure from 1986-2000, Georgia collected seven SEC Championships, five SEC individual crowns and five top-10 NCAA finishes. Todd McCorkle assumed the helm in 2000 and delivered the program’s first-ever team national title the following spring. Kelley Hester, a three-time All-SEC performer as the former Kelley Richardson, christened the newest chapter in Georgia Golf lore in 2008 and led the Bulldogs to two more top-20 finishes. Josh Brewer was named as the Bulldogs’ fifth head coach in June 2012 and immediately began to build upon UGA’s rich golf legacy.
Dominating the SEC in Beans’ “Glory Days”
Shauna Estes and Reilley Rankin were the driving forces behind teams which won an unprecedented trio of three straight SEC Championships between 1997-99. In 1997, Estes became the first player ever to claim the league’s “Triple Crown” – earning SEC Player and Freshman of the Year accolades and medalist honors at the SEC Championships. A year later, Beans Kelly was tabbed National Coach of the Year and Rankin repeated Estes’ “Triple Crown” effort.

Liz Murphey (1978-86) Liz Murphey, a leader in the evolution of women’s intercollegiate athletics, had been at UGA for a decade when the school named women’s golf an intercollegiate sport. She led Georgia top-10 finishes at each national championship from 1979-83 and coached Terri Moody and Cindy Schreyer to individual national titles. Murphey also served as SWA for 18 years and guided UGA women’s athletics to six SEC All-Sports titles from 1984-94.
Beans Kelly (1986-00)
Never labeled as predictable, Beans Kelly resigned in 2000 while seemingly on top of the college golf world. Under her tutelage, the Lady Bulldogs won 43 team and 33 individual titles, including Vicki Goetze’s 1992 NCAA title; captured seven SEC crowns; and posted eight NCAA top-10 finishes. She was named National Coach of the Year in 1998 and in 2000 became the youngest coach inducted into the NGCA Hall of Fame.
Todd McCorkle (2000-07) Todd McCorkle arrived in Athens just months after leading Arizona to the national championship. The next spring, McCorkle coached Georgia to the program’s first-ever NCAA team title and became just the second coach in Division I history to win back-to-back NCAA championships at two schools. McCorkle also led the Bulldogs to two SEC titles and seven of his Bulldog golfers combined to earn 11 AllAmerica certificates.
Kelley Hester (2007-12)
Kelley Hester returned to her alma mater in June 2007 and furthered the storied tradition of Georgia Golf. She led the Bulldogs to a pair of top-10 finishes in her five campaigns in Athens. Individually, Marta Silva Zamora blossomed under Hester’s tutelage to become the consensus National Player of the Year in 2011 and five different Bulldogs combined to secure eight AllAmerica certificates during Hester’s tenure.

National Champions 1981
Terri Moody moved atop the leaderboard midway through the second round of the 1981 AIAW National Championships at the UGA Golf Course and held off a late charge from Miami’s Patti Rizzo to win Georgia’s first-ever individual national title by a female student-athlete in any sport. Moody was among a group of five golfers tied for second following an opening-round 73, but grabbed a one-stroke lead over Rizzo with a 72 on her second loop. Moody, an Athens native who was the first female student-athlete to receive a full athletic scholarship from UGA, maintained that advantage when she and Rizzo Terri Moody both carded third-round 75s. 1981 AIAW Medalist On the final day, Rizzo’s 75 knotted the score and forced a three-hole playoff. Moody completed the trio of holes at 1-under while Rizzo was 1-over.
1984
Cindy Schreyer claimed a dramatic win at the 1984 NCAA Championships, winning a threehole playoff with SMU’s Martha Foyer and Miami’s Michele Bertroitti with a birdie at No. 12. Schreyer had battled Arizona State’s Heather Farr through most of the tournament. Farr carded an opening-round score of 71 at Innisbrook Resort and Golf Club in Tarpon Springs, Fla. Schreyer, who was among seven golfers tied for eighth after the first day, rebounded to break the course record and knot herself with Farr on the leaderboard with a second-round 70. Cindy Schreyer Farr regained a one-shot lead 1984 NCAA Medalist following the third round. While Schreyer shot 76 in the final round, Foyer and Berteotti carded 75s to force the playoff. Farr slipped to fourth with a 79, two strokes off the playoff-forcing score of 297.
1992
Vicki Goetze turned in one of the most impressive single rounds in the history of women’s collegiate golf en route to capturing top individual honors at the 1992 NCAA Championships on Arizona State University’s Karsten Golf Course. Goetze and Stanford’s Audrey Wooding led following first-round, 3-under 69s; however, Annika Sorenstam of Arizona grabbed a three-shot advantage with a second-round 68. Sorenstam maintained that same margin after both she and Goetze shot 72s on the third day. Goetze then torched the course with a 7-under 65 on the fourth day to top Sorenstam by three. Vicki Goetze Goetze’s effort still remains as 1992 NCAA Medalist both the low single-round score in NCAA Championships history (though four other golfers have equaled the mark) and the Bulldogs’ low loop all time as well.
2001
The 2001 Bulldogs utilized three days of consistent golf to place themselves in contention and then used a spectacular final-round effort to win UGA’s first-ever national title in women’s golf. Georgia shot 298 and was among three teams tied for fourth after the opening day but climbed to sole possession of third after a second-round 295. The Bulldogs improved to 293 in the third round but still trailed top-ranked Duke by four entering the final 18 holes. Georgia seized contol early in the fourth round, tying the Blue Devils by No. 5 and then surging to a three-shot lead at No. 6. Duke never got closer than two shots thereafter. Georgia clinched the title with steely resolve. After a trio of bogeys at No. 16, UGA played the par-5 No. 17 at 3-under to all but seal the national title. The Bulldogs’ fourth-round score of 290 was six shots better than any other team in the field, as Reilley Rankin and Summer Sirmons carded a pair of 72s, while Laura Henderson and Angela Jerman both shot 73. All four of those Bulldogs finished among the top 18 individuals, with Rankin tying for 10th at 292, Henderson and Jerman both tying for 13th at 294 and Sirmons tied for 18th at 296.
