Team Philosophy
Golf is a game that can be played for a lifetime. Coach Herrity looks to instill a love of the game by encouraging continuous improvement in each student-athlete. This improvement needs to be week-to-week as well as year-to-year. We will teach the technical skills to improve, as well as develop the mental aspects to compete effectively.
Playing opportunities are determined by competitive competition during the preseason as well as throughout the season.
