Angie Ridgeway

Angie Ridgeway enters her 21st season at the helm of the women's golf program in 2025-26. 

Ridgeway has guided the Terriers to unprecedented heights since arriving at Wofford in July 2004. The former LPGA player was originally tabbed as the associate director of golf before being named the women’s head coach during the summer of 2005.

The Terriers have won 13 tournaments in Ridgeway’s era, including Wofford’s first NCAA Division I tournament victory at the Wofford Invitational in October of 2004. Ridgeway has also coached the Terriers to 71 top-five tournament finishes, and a Terrier has taken the individual title at 14 tournaments since Ridgeway came to Spartanburg. Former assistant coach Erin Wells won the program's first individual championship, taking the 2007 Wofford Invitational, while Becca Earl claimed the 2018 Terrier Intercollegiate, the 2019 Winthrop Invitational and the 2022 Lady Bison Classic. The most recent Terrier winner was Bella Kent in the 2025 Mimosa Hills Intercollegiate.

The 2024-25 campaign was a stellar one for the program as the Terrier earned a pair of teams wins while finishing top five in five of the 10 events played. The two tournament wins mark the fourth time in program history that Wofford won two events in a season. The fall slate concluded in style with Wofford going on a run of three-straight top-five finishes that culminated in a win at the Fripp Island Intercollegiate, the program’s first victory since February 2022. After a third-place result in the Terriers’ own Low Country Intercollegiate, Wofford earned its second victory of the season in the Mimosa Hills Intercollegiate. That event saw Bella Kent break through to claim her first individual title, becoming the first Terrier with low medalist honors in just over two years. This marked the first team and individual victory sweep for the program since 2010. In Wofford’s win in Fripp Island, Kent and Regina Parra tied for fourth place to lead the way as the duo then earned SoCon Co-Players of the Week honors. Maggie Jackson concluded her Terrier career with a 77.54 stroke average, second in program history. Her 113 rounds played are the most in program history as she is the only Terrier to ever breach 100 rounds.
 
In the 2023-24 season, Wofford tallied a pair of top-five finishes. The Terriers opened season tying for fifth in the Elon Invitational before recording a runner-up result in the penultimate tournament of the season at App State's Mimosa Hills Intercollegiate. A pair of Terriers notched runner-up results during the season. Bella Kent opened the spring slate with a second-place tie in the Puerto Rico Classic with a 2-under 214, and Lilli Horn secured a runner-up result in the Mimosa Hills Intercollegiate. Kent concluded the season by earning a spot on the SoCon All-Freshman Team. Her 73.81 stroke average goes down as the third best in a season in program history. 

In the 2022-23 campaign, Wofford claimed three top-five results. The first of those came in the second event in the fall with a fourth-place results at the Grandover Fall Classic. Maggie Jackson tied for third in the event, a new career best. Wofford hosted its Terrier Intercollegiate in the fall, placing ninth while being paced by a pair of freshmen, Xuan Khue Minh Doan (ninth) and Ella Stoll (20th). The Terriers finished the season strong, gathering a pair of top fives in the final two events. Wofford placed fourth in the Mimosa Hills Intercollegiate before wrapping up with a fifth-place result in the Southern Conference Championship. Senior Nicole Amos tied for eighth in the tournament to lead the squad.

The 2021-22 season was the best in program history, in which Ridgeway led the Terriers to five top-five finishes, including a pair of victories. The two wins are the first for the Terriers since the 2009-10 and 2004-05 seasons, and Wofford’s 301.87 season average through 30 rounds played is the program’s lowest ever. Wofford secured a victory to conclude the fall in the French Broad Collegiate Invitational, the first win for the Terriers since 2012. Becca Earl notched an individual medalist result to open the spring campaign in the Lady Bison Classic. Wofford claimed its second win of the season at the Islander Classic. The season concluded with a runner-up finish in the Southern Conference Championships, the program’s best finish all-time. Earl finished as an individual runner-up, the first Terrier to do so. Earl was rewarded with an All-Southern Conference Team honor at the end of the season, and Ridgeway was tabbed as the Southern Conference Coach of the Year, the first of her career.

Although the 2019-20 spring season was cut short, Wofford had a pair of second-place finishes at the Elon Invitational and Winthrop Fall Invitational. Ridgeway continued to coach up sophomore Becca Earl who set a new program scoring record (72.95) and shattered the highest national player rating of in Wofford women's golf history, finishing with a ranking of 134. The previous record was held by current volunteer assistant coach Erin Wells, who finished 305 in 2007.

In 2018-19, the Terriers boasted four top-five finishes including a tie for second in the French Broad UNC Asheville Invitational. Ridgeway also coached the program's second SoCon Freshman of the Year, Becca Earl, who was joined by classmate Kristine Torralba to become just the fourth and fifth members of the SoCon All-Freshman Team in program history. In her first year, Earl broke Lauren Dunbar's scoring average record, shooting 75.46 in 22.0 rounds played. 

Ridgeway's 2017-18 squad recorded seven top 10 finishes in nine events. The Terriers won the Oyster Shuck Match play, Wofford's first win since 2012 and ninth in program history, all under Ridgeway's guidance. Senior Nicole Chin led the team with a 76.5 stroke averaged and totaled three top 10 finishes on the season, two which came in her final two events as a Terrier. She finished third in the Mimosa Hills Intercollegiate before earning a sixth place finish, her eighth career top 10 finish, at the SoCon Championship. Chin's sixth place finish ties Danielle Sertick (1999) and Lela Oakley (2015) for the best round by a Wofford golfer at the Southern Conference Championship.

In 2016-17, Ridgeway’s team recorded five top 10 finishes. Wofford’s highest finish, fifth came in the Terrier Intercollegiate (Oct. 10-11), and Wofford also finished sixth in the Low Country Intercollegiate (March 18-19), the other tournament the Terriers host. Wofford finished seventh in the Southern Conference tournament for the second season in a row. 

Ridgeway's team added three top-five tournament finishes during the 2015-16 campaign. The first came at the challenging Loyola Whistling Straits Intercollegiate (Oct. 12-13), where Wofford finished second out of 11 teams. The tournament was hosted at Blackwolf Run Golf Course, home of the 1998 and 2012 U.S. Women's Open, and the Terriers battled wind gusts over 25 miles per hour to finish among the top of a competitve field. Nicole Chin finished runner-up individually and was one of just seven players in the field to break 80 during the final round. The following weekend, Wofford hosted the Terrier Intercollegiate (Oct. 19-20), placing third among another 11-team field.

The spring of 2016 was highlighted by a third-place finish at The Citadel's Bulldog Invitaitonal. Maegan Higgins used an opening round even-par 72 on her way to a fourth-place showing individually at 5-over-par 149. Wofford also hosted an 18-team field at the eighth annual Low Country Intercollegiate, and made a final-round charge to finish right in the middle of the pack. The Terriers completed the year with a seventh-place finish at the Southern Conference Championship.

The 2014-15 season was a successful one. The Terriers claimed six top-five finishes, including second at both the Winthrop Fall Invitational (Nov. 1-2) and Low Country Intercollegiate (March 21-22). On the individual side, senior Lauren Dunbar took home medalist honors twice. Her first was highlighted by a 1-under 71 at the Cincinnati Bearcat Classic (Oct. 6-7), and her second came at the Winthrop Fall Invitational. Junior Emiley Pagrabs earned four individual top-five finishes, and freshman Lela Oakley earned Wofford's top finish at the Southern Conference Championship, placing sixth with a three-round total of 1-over-par 217.

Ridgeway added three top-fives to her coaching resume in 2013-14. Wofford began the year by finishing second at its home tournament, the Terrier Intercollegiate (Sept. 9-10), with freshman Katy Funk shooting an even-par 144 to earn runner-up honors in her first-ever collegiate tournament. The Terriers then finished top-five in their final two tournaments of the fall. Wofford earned third of 13 teams at the CSU Wendy's Invitational (Oct. 7-8), and concluded the fall fifth of 12 teams at the Jacksonville Courtyard Classic (Oct. 14-15).

The spring began with the first-ever Country Club of Spartanburg Spring Invitational (Feb. 24-25), which the Terriers hosted and took third place. Wofford then hosted its third tournament of the 2013-14 season, inviting 10 teams to Hilton Head, S.C., for the sixth Low Country Intercollegiate. The Terriers took fifth. Senior Anne Marie Covar earned a top-10 finish. The spring concluded at the Southern Conference Championship in Hilton Head, where Wofford finished sixth, junior Lauren Dubar was named All-Southern Conference, and freshman Katy Funk was named to the league's all-freshman team.
 
In 2012-13, Ridgeway took Wofford to never-before-seen heights. The incredible year began with four top-fives in all four of Wofford’s fall tournaments, including a team title at the South Carolina State University Bulldog Invitational. Wofford shot a three-round team total of 884, shattering the program’s low 54-hole record of 921, which was set in October of 1999. The Terriers also set a new low 18 record of 285, and posted the second-best low 36 in program history of 588. Individually, Anne Marie Covar won the tournament with a three-round total of 2-under-par 214, setting the program’s new low 54 and posting the second-best tournament score in relation to par. Two weeks later, Ridgeway’s Terriers posted the program’s second-best 54-hole total of 905, taking second place at the CSU Wendy’s Invitational.
 
The 2012-13 season had more in store. The spring season witnessed the Terriers earn three more top fives, including fourth place of 28 teams at the C&F Bank Intercollegiate, fourth of 16 in the Terrier-hosted Low Country Intercollegiate, and third of 12 teams at the Mimosa Hills Intercollegiate.

In 2010-11, Alex Rankin joined Erin Wells as the only Terriers in program history to be selected All-Southern Conference. Rankin finished the year ranked No. 10 in the conference with a 76.59 stroke average and highlighted her season with an individual championship at the Boscobel Intercollegiate, shooting a final-round 3-under-par 69 to finish the tournament 1 under par. Rankin’s round of 69 remains the second-lowest 18-hole score in program history. She also took seventh place at the SoCon Championships.
 
The 2010-11 season also saw many other feats. Then-freshman Anne Marie Covar earned her first collegiate individual championship at the Winthrop Fall Intercollegiate, tying Rankin’s season-low round of 69 on the final day. Covar went on to be named SoCon Freshman of the Year, becoming the First Terrier to earn the honors.

As a team, the Terriers took fifth place.
 
Wofford earned one tournament championship on the 2009-10 campaign, finishing atop the seven-team field at the Boscobel Intercollegiate. The Terriers fired back-to-back rounds of 16-over-par 304 to win the team title by 19 strokes over Gardner-Webb. The 36-hole total of 608 remains the ninth-best in program history.
 
The 2008-09 season saw then-freshman Sarah Hurt come on the scene and earn SoCon All-Freshman honors. Hurt began her collegiate career with a runner-up finish in her very first tournament, shooting rounds of 2-under 70 and 3-under 69 at the Great Smokies Intercollegiate. Hurt’s 5-under-par tournament set the Wofford program record for score in relation to par, which still stands to this day. Hurt earned two more top 10s that year and tied for 36th place at the SoCon Championship.
 
As a team, the Terriers had a very successful year which included four top five finishes, highlighted by a second-place showing at the Wofford Diet Coke Invitational.

The 2007-08 season saw freshman Alex Rankin join Erin Wells as just the second Terrier to be tabbed SoCon Player of the Week. Rankin picked up the accolade the week of March 19 after winning the Gainesville Shootout, and picked up the award a second time the week of April 16 after taking fourth place at the Roar-EE Women’s Invite. She is the only Terrier in program history to earn SoCon Player of the Week twice in a season.
 
Ridgeway led Wofford to its first three team tournament championships in program history, while Erin Wells became the program’s first-ever All-Southern Conference honoree in 2006-07.
