Carol Green Robertson completed her first year as women's head coach after serving as assistant coach for both men's and women's golf programs.

In 2011-12, her Lady Monarchs won two tournaments (Towson and Hoya Invitational). The women's program placed fifth or better in six tournaments.

The Lady Monarchs not only got it done on the course, but also in the classroom. The Lady Monarchs 3.4 overall grade point average for 2011-12 was the best among ODU's 18 intercollegiate sports. The team also was a recipient of the NCAA APR Recognition award as one of the top performing women's golf teams nationally.

"We are fortunate to have someone of Carol's experience as a player in college and on the Futures Tour as our assistant. Carol is eager to share her knowledge with the teams and we look forward to working with her."

"We are very pleased to have Carol join our golf coaching staff. She brings a variety of experiences as a Collegiate golfer, professional tour player, and also has coaching experience with both men's and women's teams at James Madison. She will be a valuable asset to both our programs." - Murray Rudisill, ODU men's golf coach.

In September of 2010, Robertson reached the finals of the U.S. Women's Mid-Amateur Championship, but fell just short of the title against Meghan Stasi of Oakland Park, FLa., in the 18-hole final at Wichita Country Club (Kan.). With her showing, Robertson has earned an exemption into this year's U.S. Women's Mid-Amateur, set for Bayville Golf Club in her hometown of Virginia Beach, Va., Sept.17-22.

Robertson is a two-time CAA Player of the Year, in 2003 and 2004, and three time first team All-CAA selection. She was the Conference medalist in 2003, and twice qualified for the NCAA East Region. Last January, she was one of 25 selected to the CAA's Silver Anniversary team for women's golf.

Robertson has been serving as the VSGA Junior golf club tournament Director in Hampton Roads. She played on the LPGA Future's Tour from 2007-09., and was an assistant golf coach at James Madison for the 2005-06 season.

Robertson was one of five collegiate women golfers chosen to represent the USA in the Collegiate World Championships, and in 2006 was the Women's Amateur Golf Champion for the State of Virginia. She was selected NGCA (National Golf Coaches Association) All-American Scholar Athlete in 2005.

"I am so excited to be a part of the Old Dominion University athletic family. I'm counting on my experience as both a coach and player being a good addition to the golf program."

The Tazewell, VA., native graduated from James Madison in 2005 with a B.S. degree in public administration with a concentration in criminal justice. She received a M.S. degree in sport management in 2007.
