RICHMOND, Va. – The College of Charleston earned its conference-leading seventh title, while UNCW’s
Victoria Levy brings the individual crown back to Wilmington for the second consecutive season following a windy final round of the 2026 CAA Women’s Golf Championship from The Reserve Club at St. James in Southport, N.C., on Sunday afternoon.
After trailing by two strokes entering the third round, the Cougars overcame the deficit to claim a two-stroke victory and secure back-to-back conference titles on the final hole of the event. CofC also captured its fourth CAA Championship in the last five tournaments with a come-from-behind win on Sunday afternoon.
Charleston (+22) had four golfers finish inside the top 10, seeing
Emilie von Finckenstein leading the charge. Her even 72 on Sunday was the best performance of the round among all competitors en route to a third-place finish in the standings at 3-over 219.
Carys Fennessy (+4) finished right behind her teammate in a tie for fourth, while
Molly Hardwick (+6) and
Adrian Anderson (+11) rounded out the top 10 in sixth and tied for ninth, respectively.
UNCW’s Levy became the second-straight Seahawk and seventh overall to secure the conference’s individual title with an even 216 for the tournament. She joined teammate
Hannah Altman (2025), as well as Phu Khine (2019), Lyberty Anderson (2016, ’17), Carmen Perez Narbon (2009) and Ashley Tait (2007) in the team’s history book as medalist honorees. Levy was joined on the podium by fellow UNCW golfer
Minouche Rooijmans, who earned a second-place finish at 1-over 217.
Campbell earned a third-place mark as
Jade Potter (+5) crashed the top five, matching Charleston’s Fennessy for fourth. The Camels also saw
Fanni Gronlund (+6) and
Taylah Ellems (+10) finish inside the top 10 with seventh and eighth-place marks.
Elon and William & Mary rounded out the top five on the team side, each seeing a golfer crack the top 10. The Phoenix’s Ashley Lafontaine and the Tribe’s Jennifer Osborne each turned in a 75 through tough conditions to finish tied for ninth.
North Carolina A&T secured its highest finish as a team in the CAA Women’s Golf Championship with a sixth-best mark. Monmouth, Towson and Hofstra closed out the field.
