SPARTANBURG, S.C. – Head Coach Todd Lawton has released the full 2025-2026 women's golf schedule. Featuring 12 tournaments, the Spartans begin play on Monday.

Head Coach Todd Lawton said, "So excited to get back to familiar events and add some new ones.  Competing at two ACC schools and being able to travel to Bermuda for the first time in program history are highlights for sure. Hosting at Fripp this fall is always a great way to end the first semester and will be a great tune-up for the Big South in the spring. We also play at Mission Inn, where there have been multiple NCAA Championships contested.  Our new team van will give us the opportunity to travel in style while allowing our players to get plenty of schoolwork done on the road.  So thankful for the support our program receives".
