Virginia senior Beth Lillie was named an honorable mention All-American today by the Women’s Golf Coaches Association. It marks the first time during her career Lillie has received the honor.

This season Lillie (Fullerton, Calif.) earned All-Atlantic Coast Conference honors for the third time as a Cavalier and finished ninth at the 2021 NCAA Championships while competing as an individual.

Lillie’s 72.77 stroke average led UVA this season. That was her lowest scoring average as a Cavalier. She was the team’s top finisher in three of the Cavaliers’ tournaments this season including a third-place showing in the season-opening UCF Challenge and a victory in the three-team Match at Spring Creek. She had a total of five top-10 finishes during the season to raise her career total to 14.

Lillie will return to compete for UVA as a graduate student during the 2021-22 season.
