DALLAS — UTSA's Camryn Carreon, Hannah Holzmann and Ana Gonzalez have been named All-Conference USA, as the league office on Wednesday unveiled its women's golf postseason awards.
Carreon and Holzmann both were chosen for the second team, while Gonzalez collected her fourth career all-conference honor with her second straight third-team nod.
Carreon earned her first career all-conference certificate with the second-team selection. The San Antonio native leads UTSA with a 73.67 stroke average this season. She owns three top-10 finishes and has placed in the top 25 in five of the six tournaments in 2021. The sophomore carded a 4-under-par 212 (74-69-69) to finish fifth at the Texas State Invitational in February and she also placed fifth after shooting a 223 (74-73-76) at the Maryb S. Kauth Invitational, helping the Roadrunners to runner-up showings at both events. Carreon fired a 1-over 217 (71-72-74) to tie for seventh at the C-USA Championship last week in Florida.
Holzmann also picked up the first all-conference certificate of her career. The junior from San Antonio ranks second on the squad with a 73.89 scoring average and she has finished in the top 10 a team-best four times this season. She fired a career-best 8-under 208 (70-70-68) to earn third place at the Texas State Invitational and followed that with a ninth-place tally of 221 (75-74-72) at the Rebel Beach Invitational in February. Holzmann grabbed a share of eighth place with a 225 (72-77-76) at the Maryb S. Kauth Invitational and tied for ninth with a 2-over 218 (74-73-71) at the C-USA Championship for her top conference finish and score.
Gonzalez became the fifth Roadrunner to receive four all-conference selections, joining Fabiola Arriaga, Julie Houston, Taylor Newlin and Paola Valerio in that exclusive club. The senior has posted a 74.44 stroke average this season and remains UTSA's career scoring leader at 73.84. Gonzalez placed inside the 35 in all six tournaments in 2021, including four times in the top 20. A native of Monterrey, Mexico, she tied for sixth with a 224 (72-77-75) at the Maryb S. Kauth Invitational and shared 12th with a 223 (74-77-72) at the Rebel Beach. Gonzalez posted her top 54-hole score of 218 (72-78-68) to claim a share of 18th at The Bruzzy and tied for 17th with a 222 (75-72-75) at the C-USA Championship.
With this season's three selections, UTSA now has garnered 36 all-conference certificates in its 16-year history, including eight in four seasons under head coach Summer Batiste.
