Eagles Men's Golf Season Preview

The Edgewood College men's golf team enter a new era under first year head coach Matthew Davidson after Gary Oftedahl retired after 23 years as head coach. The Eagles enter the season six golfers strong and looking to continue their strong tradition of competing under Davidson.

“Edgewood College has been a successful program for such a long time, and I am looking forward to building on and continuing that success," said Davidson. “We have a solid group of returning players to go along with a couple of new additions to the team. I have a hard-working group; they all want to get better and are willing to put in the effort it takes to get there. I am excited to see what they can do this season, but also in the next few seasons, because I know they are only going to keep improving."
