  • Hester on Caroline"
    "Caroline will continue the strong tradition of in-state players we have had here at Clemson. We fought hard to get the No. 1-ranked player in the state out of Columbia and know she will be a huge asset for us on and off the course. She is a record-setting four-time State Champion, but excels in the classroom too. Simply put, Caroline is a great girl and a great golfer! She’s the type of kid who never meets a stranger and helps bring out the best in those around her."
