CHARLOTTE – After helping the Radford women's golf program to its first conference championship in school history, Macy Johnson was named the Big South's Scholar Athlete of the Year to go with First Team All-Conference honors, announced by the league office on Thursday morning.
Johnson had an unreal year on the course for the Highlanders this season. To go with the program's first championship in program history, the Salem, Virginia native won two events as an individual during the 2024-25 campaign (at ECU, Fall 2024 and at William & Mary, Spring 2025). She also became the program's all-time individual tournament wins leader in school history with three career victories overall.
She was a standout in the classroom just as much as she was on the course as she recorded a perfect 4.0 grade point average as an economics major. Johnon was also inducted into Beta Gamma Sigma (an organization honoring the top 10 percent of business undergraduate students in the country) to go with being a mainstay on both Radford's Dean's List and the Big South's Presidential Honor Roll.
Johnson is the first Radford student-athlete to claim the Big South's Scholar Athlete of the Year since 2014 and is just the fourth Highlanders to win the prestigious award overall.
