AUBURN, Ala. – Four Auburn players have been awarded SEC postseason honors, the conference office announced on Wednesday. Megan Schofill, Casey Weidenfeld and Anna Davis have each been named second team All-SEC. Davis was also placed on the conference's All-Freshman team while Ashley-Sinclair Curtis was placed on the SEC Community Service Team.

Schofill has now been given All-SEC honors five times in her career. She was first team All-SEC in 2020 and 2023 as well as second team in 2021 and 2022. Weidenfeld has been given postseason honors by the conference for the second season in a row after being tabbed SEC All-Freshman in 2023. This season marks Curtis' third consecutive on the SEC Community Service Team.

Schofill, a fifth-year senior, has followed up her All-American season in 2023 with an impressive final year on the Plains. Schofill leads the team with a 71.44 scoring average in 2023-24 and also continues to hold the lowest scoring average in program history at 71.99 (minimum 60 rounds).

In nine tournaments, Schofill has recorded 13 rounds under par and carded a team-best 97 birdies. The Monticello, Florida native holds the program record for most career rounds under par with 55 and broke the record for most career birdies in Auburn program history this season.

Auburn redshirt freshman Casey Weidenfeld has made her second year her best with the Tigers in 2023-24. Weidenfeld holds a scoring average of 71.80, recorded 13 rounds under par and carded 92 birdies this season.

The Pembroke Pines, Florida native has four top-10 finishes this season including a couple of runner-up finishes. Weidenfeld began the season with a career-low 206 (-10) at the Mason Rudolph Championship which led to a tie for second place finish and carded the same 54-hole total later in the season at the Ruth's Chris Tar Heel Invitational, which featured a final round 65 (-7) and a second place finish on the individual leaderboard.

At this season's Augusta National Women's Amateur, Weidenfeld made the cut in her first ever appearance in the event. She went on to shoot 2-under (70) at historic Augusta National Golf Club and captured a top-5 individual finish.

Freshman Anna Davis arrived on the Plains in January and made an immediate impact on the Tigers' lineup. Davis earned a top-10 finish at the Darius Rucker Intercollegiate then ended the regular season by shooting 3-under (213) and capturing a runner-up finish at the Liz Murphey Collegiate Classic. That performance garnered Davis SEC Freshman of the Week honors on April 3.

The 2022 Augusta National Women's Amateur champion then shot 206 (-4) to record a top-5 finish in the stroke play portion of the SEC Championship and the best finish of any freshman in the field.

In six events this spring, Davis holds a 71.61 scoring average and has recorded 10 rounds under par.  

Auburn junior Ashley-Sinclair Curtis has been involved in community service in both her Auburn area community as well as her hometown community in Enterprise, Alabama. This year, Curtis volunteered through her involvement with Auburn's Student-Athlete Advisory Committee with Auburn/Opelika Habitat for Humanity. The Auburn junior's project involved sodding a yard for a Habitat for Humanity homeowner.

Additionally, Curtis is involved as a volunteer with the Distinguished Young Women of Alabama as well as the Distinguished Young Women of Coffee County.

Auburn will begin its run at the NCAA Championship at the Auburn Regional, which is being held at AU Club May 6-8.
