Emme Lantis was named the assistant women's golf coach at Palm Beach Atlantic in September of 2025.

Lantis looks to build upon the most successful season in program history that saw the Sailfish narrowly miss out on making the DII national championship tournament.

"I feel incredibly blessed to give back to PBA for all the opportunities the university and athletics program have given me. My time here shaped me on and off the course, and I'm proud to support a place that's had such a lasting impact. Go Fish!" Lantis contributes.

The Sailfish built on the momentum from the 2024-25 season that Lantis was a playing member of in the 2025-26 season. Lantis worked with Abby Smith and others on the course with shots and course strategy. The Sailfish qualified for the NCAA Regionals for the second time in program history and for the second year in a row. Freshman Abby Smith made an immediate impact for the Sailfish leading the team with a stroke average of 76.68 in her first season. Smith's best performance of the season was a 1-over, 214 performance for an individual T2 finish and led the Sailfish to a second place team finish. A run of three top-five team finishes and a sixth place finish at the SSC Championship propelled the 'Fish to a second South Regional appearance in as many seasons. 


Lantis competed on the Sailfish women's golf team for five years. Lantis played in 37 tournaments over her five-year career with PBA. Her best career finishes came at the Seminole State Invitational where she finished tied for 16^th during her senior and fifth seasons. Her career low came at the Lady Matlock Classic where she shot a 73.
