Reminder.

The North Carolina A&T women's golf team hasn't even started its spring season. Therefore, Ekaterina Prokhorova's pulverizing of the A&T record book may be far from over.
She secured another Coastal Athletic Association (CAA) honor on Wednesday, when the league named her co-women's golfer of the week. It marked her fourth weekly award this season, and the Aggies still have one tournament remaining in 2025.

No other A&T golfer, men or women, has won four career weekly honors. Prokhorova finished second at the UNC Greensboro Collegiate tournament on Tuesday, marking the highest finish for an Aggie in the eight times A&T has played in UNCG's annual event. She finished two shots off the lead behind nationally ranked Wake Forest player Chutimon Ruijranan.

In what is shaping up to be the best fall campaign in program history, Prokhorova finished in second place with a 1-under 215. Prokhorova's runner-up finish was her fifth straight tournament placing inside the top five. Prokhorova is just the second Aggie to finish inside the top five at the event, besting Tori Mouton's fifth-place finish from a year ago. Prokhorova posted a 3-under in her best 18-hole showing of the weekend, closing out the second round with birdies on two of the final three holes.

Prokhorova won the accolade two weeks after winning the 2025 SAS HBCU Invitational at Prestonwood Country Club in Cary, NC. Prokhorova shot a 4-over 214 to lead the Aggies to the team win over North Carolina Central University (NCCU). Prokhorova won the tournament by two strokes over senior teammate Polina Marina, becoming the second straight Aggie to win the SAS HBCU Invitational after senior teammate Tori Mouton won the event last season.

Prokhorova has made it a point this fall to obliterate the A&T women's golf program's record book. She carded six birdies over the two-day, three-round event at SAS. Her win at SAS marked the third time she has produced medalist honors in the last five events she has played, dating back to last season's PGA Works title to close out the spring. She has also finished in the top 5 in her previous five tournaments.

In one of those five tournaments, the Elon Invitational in September, she finished in fourth place to earn co-CAA Women's Golfer of the Week accolades. Prokhorova's three career tournament wins tie her with Christyn Carr for the program record.

At the Bridgewater HBCU Invitational earlier this season, Prokhorova toppled five program records and tied one on her way to winning CAA Women's Golfer of the Week, including the lowest 54-hole score (202) and the largest margin of victory (18 strokes).

She also shot a 67 in the first round to tie Paris Fielding's program record. The seven birdies she converted in the final round of the Bridgewater HBCU Invitational are also a record, along with her 18 birdies for the tournament. By winning the Bridgewater HBCU Invitational, she became the first Aggie to win back-to-back tournaments.

The Aggies will participate in the Fripp Island Intercollegiate hosted by USC Upstate from November 1-3 in St. Helena Island, SC, on the Ocean Creek Golf Course.
