MURFREESBORO, Tenn. – The Middle Tennessee women's golf program has signed transfer Isabella Johnson to its 2025-26 roster, head coach Lauren Wamsley announced Tuesday afternoon. Johnson, a Murfreesboro native, will join the program as a sophomore, transferring in from the University of Tennessee.
"We are so excited to have Isabella join our Blue Raider family this fall," said Coach Wamsley. "Izzy brings a wealth of experience from junior golf to her previous semester in college. I know the community is very excited to have her back in Murfreesboro. We can't wait to unlock the rest of her game here at MTSU and we're ready to win some trophies with Izzy soon!"
As a Lady Volunteer, Johnson competed in eight rounds throughout three tournaments, averaging 75.63 during those rounds. She made her collegiate debut at the Moon Golf Invitational, shooting a low round of 73 in the final round to finish at six-over-par. Her best finish of the season was at the Daniel Island Invitational, earning her first top-25 finish at T23. Johnson turned in her first round at par of her career on the final day, shooting a 219 (+3) overall at the event. The incoming sophomore also competed at the Tennessee Spring Challenge, finishing tied for 33rd in the 36-hole competition.
"I am so excited for this opportunity to continue my collegiate golf journey in my hometown at MTSU," said Johnson. "I could not be more proud to represent the city and the people that are near and dear to my heart by playing the sport that I love. Go Blue Raiders!"
A graduate of Providence Christian Academy, Johnson had a prolific junior career and was named the 2024 Tennessee Golf Association Girls' Junior Player of the Year. On the junior tour, she qualified for the 2023 U.S. Women's Amateur and the U.S. Girls Junior Amateur, while also winning the 2021 and 2023 SNEDS Tour Tournament of Champions. Thanks to her wins on the SNEDS Tour, she was named the 2021 and 2023 SNEDS Tour Player of the Year.
Playing at Providence Christian Academy, she is a three-time TSSAA Division II-A team champion and brought home the individual crown from the 2024 TSSAA Division II-A state championship. Johnson was selected to All-State teams in three of her high school years and was a member of the Tennessee Junior Cup team in 2023 and 2024.
