Alabama Women's Golf Finishes 16th In Conference Tournament: Roll Call

Alabama finished 16th at the SEC Women's Golf Championships, carding a three-round total of 31-over par 888 in Belleair, Fla. at Pelican Golf Club.

The Crimson Tide, ranked No. 56 in NCAA Division I entering the postseason, opened with a 296 and followed with rounds of 295 and 297 to close the tournament.

Natachanok Tunwannarux led Alabama for the seventh time this season, placing 44th individually at 7-over par 217. She highlighted her week with a second-round 69.

Senior teammates Ryan Fynn and Mattison Frick each tied for 65th at 12-over par 222. Harriet Lockley, who competed in the opening two rounds before being subbed out of the final round, finished 79th at 14-over par 154. Freshman Amanda Gyllner placed 80th at 15-over par 155 in her first SEC Championship appearance, while Grace Crawford competed in the final two rounds and finished 81st at 22-over par 162.

The tournament comes during a transitional period for the program. Head coach Mic Potter announced earlier this month he will retire following the 2025-26 season, concluding a 21-year run in Tuscaloosa and a 43-year Division I head coaching career. Potter, a two-time national coach of the year, led Alabama to its first NCAA championship in 2012 and helped elevate the program into a consistent postseason contender.

After leading our program for over two decades, this is the last @SEC tournament for Coach Potter after recently announcing his retirement following the season.

This Date in Alabama Crimson Tide History:

April 20, 1985: Some 125 former players returned to Tuscaloosa to dress out and play the varsity in the annual Red-White game. The youngsters won 20-7 but the 30,000 in attendance were entertained by the stars of the past. Robin Parkhouse, the 1971 defensive captain, said he wished there had been one more quarter to play, a sentiment not expressed by many others on the losing side. A 52-yard pass from Scott Hunter to Tyrone King, a defensive back during his 1973-75 playing days, set up a 1-yard sneak by Hunter for the veterans' lone score. The veterans' team ranged in age from 23-67. - Bryant Museum

April 20, 1989: Brad Smelley was born in Tuscaloosa.

Alabama Crimson Tide Quote of the Day:

I'm going to continue to do this for as long as I feel like I can make a positive contribution and as long as I feel healthy enough to do it. And, you know, our noontime basketball team was undefeated again this year, so that's always an indicator to me that I can make it through another season.
