A freshman is firmly in the lead spot for Wake Forest and so far, she’s carried the Demon Deacons to two consecutive spring titles. Carolina Chacarra topped the individual leaderboard at the Darius Rucker Intercollegiate on March 2 and Wake Forest also won the team title.
Wake Forest has now won two consecutive events, adding the Darius to its UCF Challenge title from last month, and has won four times this season. The team also won the Darius Rucker in 2020, the last time it was played.
Wake Forest climbed from fourth to first in the second round and eventually claimed a nine-shot victory on host team South Carolina. The Demon Deacons, ranked No. 5 by Golfweek, led the field in birdies.
