College Performers of the Week powered by Rapsodo: Wake Forest women’s golf


A freshman is firmly in the lead spot for Wake Forest and so far, she’s carried the Demon Deacons to two consecutive spring titles. Carolina Chacarra topped the individual leaderboard at the Darius Rucker Intercollegiate on March 2 and Wake Forest also won the team title.

Wake Forest has now won two consecutive events, adding the Darius to its UCF Challenge title from last month, and has won four times this season. The team also won the Darius Rucker in 2020, the last time it was played.

Wake Forest climbed from fourth to first in the second round and eventually claimed a nine-shot victory on host team South Carolina. The Demon Deacons, ranked No. 5 by Golfweek, led the field in birdies.

“What an incredible week for these student-athletes! There was outstanding competition on a difficult course with phenomenal crowds all week,” head coach Kim Lewellen said in a school release. “We are proud of this.”

Behind Chacarra, Rachel Kuehn tied for 13th for Wake Forest while Lauren Walsh and Mimi Rhodes were T-20.
