Men's Golf's Goldman A Finalist For Strickland Award
August 5, 2024 | Men's Golf
The University of North Carolina's Noah Goldman is one of three finalists for the 2024 Jan Strickland Outstanding Men's Golf Assistant Coach of the Year Award presented by TaylorMade Golf Company.
The Strickland Award is presented annually to the assistant coach that has excelled in working with their student-athletes both on the course and in the classroom.
Goldman, Bo Andrews of Tennessee and Chris Williams of Auburn are the Division I finalists. Goldman was also a finalist in 2021, when he was the associate head coach at Oregon State.
The 2023-24 season was Goldman's first at UNC. The Tar Heels won a school-record-tying seven team championships, won the ACC title for the first time in 18 seasons, became the third team in the match play era to advance to match play in the NCAA Championships four years in a row and set a record with five players on the All-ACC team.
Carolina won at Olympia Fields, the Williams Cup at Eagle Point, the prestigious East Lake Cup in Atlanta, the Amer Ari Invitational with a record-shattering score of 68-under 796 (the lowest result to par in ACC history), the John Hayt, the Augusta Haskins Award Invitational and the ACC Championship. The Tar Heels placed third in the NCAA Chapel Hill Regional and advanced to the quarterfinals in the NCAA Championship, where they tied for fifth.
The Tar Heels compiled a 148-21-1 record in stroke play, went 4-2 in match play, were No. 3 in the country in the final Scoreboard/Clippd rankings and posted the second-best stroke average (280.75) in UNC history.
Austin Greaser, a second-team All-America, won his second NCAA regional and joined David Ford and Maxwell Ford (both third team) in earning All-America honors. Those three players plus Peter Fountain and Dylan Menante earned All-ACC honors.
Both Fords and Menante also made the Academic All-ACC team.
