The Peach Belt Conference The Peach Belt Conference is committed to providing, through its dependent collegiate members, a forum for student participation in athletic, academic and co-curricular events under the auspices of the National Collegiate Athletic Association, Division II. We will exemplify the characteristics of a premier intercollegiate conference that prides itself on the inclusion of students of all demographic groups who wish to participate in a well-rounded sports program. Our institutions, our academic goals, our athletic aspirations reflect a communality of purpose and a commitment to excellence in the classroom and on the playing field.
This is USC Aiken ď„–
The University of South Carolina Aiken was chartered in 1961 after entering into an agreement with the University of South Carolina to establish a two-year center in Aiken. The Aiken Center opened its doors in September 1961 to 139 students. Temporarily housed in Banksia, a renovated mansion in Aiken, the Center consisted of three full-time faculty members (one of whom served as Director of the Center). In 1968, the Center underwent an institutional self-study and was accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools as a branch of the University of South Carolina and as a junior college. The first associate degrees were awarded in June 1968. The campus of USC Aiken moved from Banksia to its present site in 1972 and physical changes began to occur rapidly. At first, the permanent campus consisted of 100 acres and one multipurpose building which housed all university operations. A library was completed in 1975, and additional land was donated that increased the campus to 144 acres. In October 1977, the Student Activities Center was opened. A classroom building was occupied in 1978, and one year later, an auxiliary services building was added.
An apartment complex for students, Pacer Downs, was ready for occupancy in the fall of 1984. More construction additions to the campus included completion of the Etherredge Center, Ruth Patrick Science Education Center, the Business and Education Building, and the Alan B. Miller Nursing Building. Additional land was acquired increasing the campus to 400 acres. Academic and organizational changes also occurred rapidly. The faculty formalized its organizational structure and redefined its role in the governance of the institution in 1974-75. Also, the students reorganized their governing body and more precisely defined their role on campus; the administration and staff structures were overhauled and expanded to meet the demands of the growing academic programs. When the full-time equivalent student enrollment reached 1,066 in the fall of 1975, the USC Aiken campus was permitted to plan for senior level courses and to create a number of baccalaureate degree programs. In that same year, USCA received approval as a four-year branch campus by the Board of Trustees of the University of South Carolina, and USCA was designated a Recognized Candidate for Senior College
Accreditation. In September 1976, the Board of Trustees granted academic autonomy to the Aiken Campus. The first bachelor’s degrees were granted in May 1977, and USCA became a fully accredited senior college. Presently, the college community is comprised of more than 3,200 students, over 100 full-time faculty, approximately 110 staff members, and 28 administrators. USCA awards bachelor’s degrees in more than 20 major areas of study, master’s degrees in two areas, and offers a varied program of continuing education courses for the wider community. Today USC Aiken offers students a liberal education designed to develop an understanding of human experience which will equip them for life in a free society. To accomplish this, the University provides students with an opportunity to discover learning processes which enable them to grow personally and socially. It promotes students’ interaction within a community of active scholars and artists, and it encourages students to use the knowledge which they gain to deal with the problems of a rapidly changing world.

Team Preview University of South Carolina Aiken head golf coach Michael Carlisle, in his 25th year at the helm of one of the best teams nationally, understands that each tournament is a learning process. The Pacers, after advancing to the NCAA Division II National Championship in 2014, are looking for the school’s first national title since the 2006 campaign. “We want to win every single tournament,” Carlisle said. “Every one we compete in has tremendous value. Each one will help us reach our goals at the end of the year. Every date throughout the year is important and we want to do our best. “We want to win the Peach Belt Conference as it makes a statement, being such a highly competitive league,” Carlisle added. “Locally, everyone looks at it being important as well. The Peach Belt Conference is the first of three steps we want to take during the year. The second step is the regional tournament and the final step is the NCAA Championship.” Carlisle’s team lost seniors Stephane Boudreau, Kyle Godsman, Hayden Letien and Gaines Milliner to graduation after the stellar run to the NCAA Championship. However, he returns an abundance of talent with All-American Brandon Robinson-Thompson along with fellow senior standouts Andrew Ward and Brian Amick. “We lost a few really good, experienced studentathletes,” Carlisle said. “However, we recruited some really good student-athletes as well. Our returners are really strong and all of our team has played well this summer. Everyone should bring a lot to the table this season.” Amick, a redshirt-senior, is back for a fifth year. He is coming off a solid season with a 75.75 stroke average after playing in two tournaments, including an 11thplace finish at the Rock Barn Invitational. “Brian is a very talented player who has a rekindled commitment to play well for his senior season,” Carlisle
said. “He worked really hard last year and has over the summer. I expect Brian to be in the top five throughout the year.” Robinson-Thompson is coming off a banner season after earning PING All-America honors. He also earned first-team all-conference accolades in addition to all-tournament team honors after winning the PBC individual title. “Brandon has been very successful here,” Carlisle stated. “He was an All-American and was the best studentathlete in the Peach Belt Conference. Brandon is an incredibly talented student-athlete, who with some polishing and a little more work ethic, could follow the same path as former USC Aiken golfer Scott Brown, into having a really successful pro career.” Ward had a solid 2013-14 campaign, registering a stroke average of 75.09. His best finish came at the Rock Barn Invitational where he took fifth. Ward competed in nine tournaments for 23 rounds. “Andrew qualified for his second U.S. Amateur Championship during the summer,” Carlisle said. “He is one of only a handful of players that can say they’ve done that. Andrew is a good, solid player and is a student of the game. I expect for him to play for us as he always finds a way to shoot scores that help the team.” Although the team has plenty of talent returning, the squad is extremely young as the five remaining players are all underclassmen. Johnson Holliday and Luke Parker both redshirted a season ago. Holliday had a stellar high school campaign, earning all-state honors. Parker also has a strong background prior to his arrival on campus. “Johnson is a really talented athlete,” Carlisle stated. “He got his appetite wet last year, wanting to play for us after seeing the success the team had. Johnson worked hard last year and in the off-seasons and played well in amateur tournaments. He will be fighting for playing
time.”
Division II team in the field.
“Luke is a very talented individual,” Carlisle mentioned. “He has a strong desire to play with us this year after being in the same situation as Johnson. He will be fighting for a spot this season.”
Carlisle’s crew will take a break until the spring season, but starts back against another strong Division II field at the Matlock Invitational Feb. 9-10. Two weeks later, the squad defends its title at the Wexford Invitational.
The newcomers include sophomore Hubert Tisserand and freshmen Axel Ostensson and Samuel Schiff.
The Pacers host the Cleveland Golf Palmetto Intercollegiate March 9-10 against a star-studded field, before hitting the road again for three more tournaments prior to the PBC Championship.
“Hubert is ranked in the top 100 men’s amateur golfers in Europe,” Carlisle stated. “He made it to match play in the British Amateur Championship. Hubert has had a lot of low scores all over Europe, which has led to his high ranking. “Axel is one of the top junior level players in all of Europe,” Carlisle said. “He made the Swedish men’s roster for the European Championship – and that is extremely tough to do. He was fifth there and shot a lot of low scores. Axel has played in a lot of big tournaments and brings a wealth of experience to the lineup. “Samuel is another good international player,” Carlisle stated. “He has played all over the world in every kind of condition possible. Samuel will fight for playing time this season.” The 2014-15 USC Aiken golf team does not have an easy schedule as Carlisle’s student-athletes compete against top-notch foes, including a healthy dose of Division I institutions. The team opens the season by hosting the Kiawah Island Invitational Sept. 15-16. From there, the team heads to Florida for the St. Leo Men’s Invitational, which is also the site for the NCAA South/Southeast Regional Championship. In October, the team will look to defend its title at the Firestone Invitational. After the two-day event, the squad will compete in the inaugural Palmetto Collegiate Championship, which is hosted by South Carolina. The event is bringing in virtually every Division I program from the state in addition to the Pacers, who are the lone
USC Aiken will look to defend its title at the Bobcat Invitational prior to the Furman Invitational, which rounds out the month of March. The final regular-season competition is Apr. 4-5 at the GRU Augusta Invitational. On Apr. 18-19, the Pacers will look for a three-peat at the PBC Championship. Two weeks later, Carlisle’s group will take its second step toward a national title – and if everything goes as planned – the team will make the trek to Conover, N.C., to compete for the NCAA Division II National Championship.

During the last 24 seasons while playing a full complement of tournaments largely against top caliber Division I competition, Carlisle’s teams have captured 80 titles for an average of 3.3 per year. This includes an amazing stretch of 23 of 28 events from the end of 2003-04 through 2005-06. USC Aiken has also become a fixture atop the GCAA Top-25 and the Golfstat top-10 polls. An eight-time NCAA District or Region Coach of the Year (1995-99, 2002, 2004, 2006), Carlisle has coached 49 NCAA All-Americans, 10 All-Academic selections, two NCAA Players of the Year, one NCAA Freshman of the Year, one Elite 89 winner, eight PBC Players of the Year and 47 All-Conference selections.

When Carlisle came to USC Aiken to take over for Paul Weiler as head golf coach, he regained his amateur status. He has won the Carolinas Amateur and the South Carolina MidAmateur Championships. Twice, Carlisle has advanced to the United States Amateur Championship. Carlisle stays active in the Aiken community including his work with the Junior Golf Association. Carlisle was honored in June of 2009 with the Thomas Hitchcock and William C. Whitney Award at the Players Dinner for the 34th Palmetto Amateur Tournament. Carlisle was the first recipient of the award. The award recognizes an individual who has made significant contributions to the game of golf in the Aiken area. Carlisle and wife, Patricia, have two sons, David and Daniel.

The Archives 2013-14 Season Review The University of South Carolina Aiken 2013-14 men’s golf team earned a top-10 billing for the entire season and put forth an outstanding campaign, which wrapped up with a berth to the NCAA Championship. Head coach Michael Carlisle’s team boasted six seniors, with three competing for much of the season. Both juniors saw the links in virtually every competition while his only sophomore qualified for three events. The Pacers were strong throughout the season, earning a No. 2 national ranking for much of the year. The squad picked up four victories during the course of the grueling schedule, including a pair of wins at Division I tournaments (Firestone Invitational and Wexford Plantation Intercollegiate). The team also registered victories at the Bobcat Invitational as it went up against a slew of PBC and top-25 squads. USC Aiken’s final win of the season came at the weather-shortened Peach Belt Conference Championship, as Carlisle’s group bested Georgia College by two strokes for the program’s second straight team championship and the 10th in school history. Collectively, the team finished 12th at the ever-tough course in Allendale, Mich., The Meadows, at the NCAA Division II National Championships. Despite not qualifying for the match play, the team’s outstanding effort during the season will be discussed for years. In addition to the four victories, the Pacers garnered six top-10 finishes, including four in the top five. Two of those finishes were runner-up efforts.
Carlisle’s team started the 2013-14 campaign with a second-place effort at the Kiawah Island Invitational behind Brandon Robinson-Thompson’s silver medal. For his effort, Robinson-Thompson picked up PBC Golfer of the Week accolades. The Pacers trailed Washington State by nine strokes at the Firestone Invitational in Akron, Ohio, but reeled off a six-under par score, 282, to best the Cougars by a mere two strokes for the title. Senior Hayden Letien paced USC Aiken with his superb third-place effort. After capturing the bronze, Letien garnered PBC Golf of the Week honors. After a 13th-place effort at the AutoTrader.com Collegiate Classic, the Pacers raced toward the front of the pack at the Rock Barn Collegiate Invitational, snagging runner-up honors at the last tournament during the first semester. Robinson-Thompson guided USC Aiken, taking second place, just one stroke behind first. Fellow junior Andrew Ward added a fifth-place effort at the event. During the team’s first tournament in Feb., Carlisle’s line-up produced a sixth-place finish at The Matlock Invitational. Robinson-Thompson tallied a ninth-place finish at the course. Senior Kyle Godsman took home the bronze medal at the Wexford Plantation Intercollegiate, helping USC Aiken to a one-shot victory against the Division I field. Godsman was followed by Robinson-Thompson, who secured another top-10 finish. Facing off against a Division I field at the Cleveland Golf
Palmetto Intercollegiate, the Pacers played well enough on their home course for a sixth-place finish. Godsman and Robinson-Thompson tied for the team lead, but Robinson-Thompson shot a tournament and PBC-best low round of 65. In the two-day tournament at the Bobcat Invitational, Carlisle’s team was up for the challenge. The squad shot a final round 287 after firing a 304 over the first 18 holes. Robinson-Thompson placed third at the event. Robinson-Thompson led USC Aiken at the Hootie at Bulls Bay event, shooting a 210 for a third-place finish. His score was good enough for six under par. The team placed 14th at the Insperity Invitational, marking the last regular-season event of the year. Heading into the PBC Championship, Carlisle’s team, just like the rest of the PBC, was ready to play. However, inclement weather forced the cancellation of the first day and resulting in just one round of 18 holes for the championship. The Pacers took home the title while RobinsonThompson won the individual crown. He and Letien, who finished third, were each named to the all-tournament team. After leading the South/Southeast Regional upon the completion of 18 holes, USC Aiken cruised to a berth at the NCAA National Championship by taking home third place. The Pacers started the NCAA National Championship
by finishing 13th after the first day of competition, but dropped back to 15th on the second day. Despite a strong final round, the team could only climb to 12th place. Although the team had great success collectively during the season, the student-athletes managed to shine individually as well. In addition to the three earning Golfer of the Week honors, all three were selected to the PBC all-conference squad. Robinson-Thompson earned first-team honors while Godsman and Letien earned second-team accolades. PING’s all-region team consisted of Godsman and Robinson-Thompson. By having a stellar campaign that saw him finish in the top 10 on nine occasions, RobinsonThompson was tabbed a first-team All-American by PING. Off the links, Ward’s impressive academic status was noticed as he was named the NCAA Elite 15 winner at the National Championship. Although the Pacers lose some talented student-athletes in Brian Amick, Stephane Boudreau, Godsman, Letien, Drew McElveen and Gaines Milliner to graduation, Carlisle returns a solid core for the 2014-15 campaign and will once again be in the hunt for not only a Peach Belt Conference title, but also another NCAA National Championship.
