Per GLVC Bylaws, each of the top-five finishers at the GLVC Championship automatically earn an All-Conference selection, with the remaining five individuals and major award winners nominated and voted on by the head coaches. Coaches are not permitted to vote for their own players.
Zanderau finished as the runner-up in the GLVC Championship stroke play event. She leads the team with a scoring average of 75.00 and has recorded three top five finishes and six top 10 finishes this season. Zanderau earned All-GLVC honors and was named the GLVC's Freshman of the Year last season. She finished seventh at the NCAA East Regional and will compete at the NCAA Championships in Orlando, Fla., May 21-23.
Lecomte also earns her second All-GLVC accolade as she was named to the team during her freshman year in 2021-22. She recorded three top 10 finishes this season and had a scoring average of 78.17. Lecomte was named GLVC Women's Golf Player of the Week on March 14 after finishing seventh with a scoring average of 72.7 in the 95-golfer field at the Emerald Coast Collegiate.
Klausner earns her first All-GLVC honor after finishing her season with a scoring average of 78.34 and had a season-low round of 71 in the second round of the DBU Classic last fall. She finished in a tie for 13th at the GLVC Championships last month.
