As a player for the Golden Eagles, Crouch set the program’s standard by earning 12 all-tournament honors, more than any other player in the team’s history, and helped Tech capture the 2000 and 2001 OVC championships.. She was also a three-time tournament medalist, winning top honors at the 1999 Great Smokies Collegiate, the 2000 APSU Precept Invitational and the 2001 EKU Lady Colonel Classic.

She was named the team MVP following the 1999 and 2001 seasons, and also was named Most Dedicated in both years. Crouch was chosen the Most Improved Player on the TTU squad in both 1998 and 1999. In her final season, while serving as team co-captain, she posted the low average of 76.8 and won her second Best Putter Award.

Following graduation, she was a teaching professional in Franklin, Tenn., and served as the Program Director for the Tennessee Golf Foundation at Golf House.
