The senior would be the first from Wake Forest to win the award.
COLUMBUS, Ga. - Following her recent individual title win at the NCAA Lubbock Regional in Lubbock, Texas, Wake Forest women's golf senior Carolina Chacarra has been named as a finalist for the ANNIKA Award, presented by Stifel.
The four-time All-ACC athlete is among 10 other finalists for this prestigious award and one of five representing the ACC. At the Deacons' recent NCAA Regional appearance, the Madrid, Spain native shot 7-under (209) at the Lubbock Regional to claim her fourth career individual title.
The ANNIKA Award is presented annually to the top Division I women's golfer. Previous finalists from Wake Forest include Jennifer Kupcho (2017, 2019, 2019) and Rachel Kuehn (2024), however the award has yet to be won by a Demon Deacon.
Chacarra is set for the final action of her collegiate career with the Wake Forest squad this upcoming Friday, May 16, in Carlsbad, Calif., at the 2025 NCAA DI Women's Golf Championship.
