UW COACHING STAFF

JOE JENSEN

(Wyoming, 1998) Director of Golf & Men’s Head Coach The Wyoming Cowboy golf program is in its 18th season under the direction of Joe Jensen. In addition to serving as the head coach of the men’s golf program, Jensen is in his 14th year as Director of UW Men’s & Women’s Golf. Jensen has directed the Cowboy golf program during one of the most competitive eras in UW’s 70-year men’s golf history. Under Jensen’s direction the Cowboys have set school records for low individual round and event score, as well as low team round and event score. The 2017-18 season saw the Cowboys tie their best finish at the Mountain West Conference Championship, tying for fifth place. It was the first time since 2002 that the Pokes had finished that high at the conference championship. During the season, Wyoming captured the team title at the Gene Miranda Falcon Invitational, and Cowboy junior John Murdock was the individual medalist at the Gene Miranda. UW also won the Mackenzie Match Play event hosted by the University of San Francisco. In the summer of 2018, Murdock became only the second amateur in the 62-year history of the Wyoming Open to win the event. Murdock also finished as the first alternate in the U.S. Amateur Qualifier hosted at Wyoming’s Glenn “Red” Jacoby Golf Course. It was the first time a U.S. Amateur had been hosted at Jacoby. Murdock placed third at the 2018 Wyoming State Amateur. Sophomore Dan Starzinski won the 2018 Wyoming Match Play Championship in June. Both Murdock and Starzinski earned spots on the three-man state of Wyoming team that played in the Pacific Coast Amateur at The Olympic Club in San Francisco in July. For the seventh consecutive season, Wyoming was named an All-Academic Team by the Golf Coaches Association of America (GCAA). Cowboy senior Arron Lickteig, Quintin Pope and Glenn Workman and junior Murdock were all named All-America scholars by the GCAA. Those four were joined by senior Drew McCullough, Starzinski and freshman Carl Underwood as Academic All-Conference selections. Murdock, Starzinski, Workman and junior Cole Bundy also earned MW Scholar Athlete honors. In 2016-17, Jensen coached senior Ryan Wallen to one of the most successful individual seasons for a Cowboy golfer in UW history. Wallen recorded the best finish ever for a Cowboy at the MW Championships, posting a three-round score of 209 (-7) to tie for third place individually as the Cowboys took eighth as a team. Wallen qualified for the NCAA Division I men’s golf regional in Sam­mamish, Wash., becoming the first Cowboy golfer to advance to regional competition since Gabe Maier in 2011. He tied for 38th overall, the best finish among individual qualifiers at the regional. The Cowboys had another successful campaign in the classroom, receiving their sixth straight All-Academic team award from the GCAA, while Wallen, Arron Lickteig, Drew McCullough and Glenn Workman were each named GCAA All-America Scholars. Meanwhile, seven Cowboys earned Academic All-Mountain West distinctions while four were named MW Scholar Athletes. In 2015-16, Jensen was named the MW Coach of the Year after he led the Pokes to eight top-five finishes, six of which were in the top-three. UW’s sixth-place finish at this year’s MW Championships was its best since the Pokes took sixth in 2005. Sophomore Drew McCullough became just the seventh Cowboy to finish in the top-ten in the 17 years UW has competed in the MW Championship, and on April 6, Jensen helped junior Ryan Wallen become the first MW Golfer of the Week since David Hearn earned the award on April 20, 2000. Academically, the men’s golf team was one of two teams at Wyoming to post a perfect APR score of 1,000. It marked the fourth consecutive reporting period that the Cowboy golf team recorded a perfect score based on its four-year average. A native of Lander, Wyo. and a former member of the UW golf team, Jensen earned his bachelor’s degree in arts and sciences from the Uni­versity of Wyoming in 1998 and completed his MBA at UW in December of 2006. In addition to his coaching duties, Jensen manages and is the head golf professional at Glenn “Red” Jacoby Golf Club at the University of Wyo­ming. Jensen, 45 (born April 10, 1970) was hired as the Cowboy golf coach on Dec. 7, 2001 and named Director of Wyoming Golf on Aug. 18, 2005. “I’m excited about my role as director of both Wyoming Golf programs,” Jensen said. “We are working hard and I’m pleased with the direc­tion of both the men’s and women’s programs. “It’s such a privilege to be a part of the Wyoming Athletics program and to bring student-athletes to UW and Laramie. I enjoy working at the school I graduated from, in my home state, and in a place where I have so many friends and family.” Jensen was a member of the Cowboy golf team during the 1992-93 season, turned professional in 1993, and became an assistant golf pro at the Jacoby Golf Club. During his six years in that position, he was responsible for the daily operation of the course. His duties also included serving as an assistant coach with the golf team. In 1999, Jensen moved to the Pelican Lakes Golf and Country Club in Windsor, Colo., where he was a golf assistant until he was hired by Wyo­ming. There he assisted in the daily operation of the golf course and coordinated a number of golf tournaments. He also taught group and junior golf lessons. In addition to his golf club duties, he was a financial representative for Northwestern Mutual Financial Network and later worked for the Bank of Colorado/Raymond James Financial Services in Fort Collins, Colo. The 2013-14 season was another successful year for the Cowboys. Jensen guided the Pokes to a second-consecutive team victory at the Battle of the Tetons, his second win as head coach of the Cowboys. Junior Kamrin Allen shot a 210 (-6) to earn his first individual title as a Cowboy, it also marked the fifth individual event victory with Jensen as coach. Wyoming also turned in a third-place finish at the Gene Miranda Falcon Invite. The pokes were led by senior Brent Baylon who tied his career-best 69 (-3) in the final round and finished tied for 10th place with fellow senior Eddie Stewart. Freshman Ryan Wallen became the first Cowboy to lead the team at the Mountain West Conference Championship since Gabe Maier in 2008. Wallen shot a career-best 218 (+5) to finish tied 18th. The Cowboys also earned their second-consecutive NCAA Public Recognition Award for its outstanding Academic Progress Rate (APR) that finished ranked in the top 10 percent of all NCAA teams in their respective sport. Jensen once again led UW to success on and off the course during the 2012-13 season. Success on the course included the Cowboys winning their first tournament since 2000, when UW took the team title at the Battle in the Tetons with a school-record 847 (-17). Also at that event, junior Eddie Stewart took the first individual medalist honors since 2009. It was the fourth individual event victory during Jensen’s tenure. Stewart’s 208 (-8) also tied for the third-best tournament score in school history. Jensen directed the 2012-13 Cowboys to their fourth-consecutive Golf Coaches Association of America All-Academic team award for having a team grade point average of 3.0 or better. The Cowboys were one of 79 teams honored from NCAA Division I and one of just two schools from the Mountain West in 2012-13. Junior Eric Parish was also named Cleveland Golf/Srixon All-America Scholar by the Golf Coaches Association of America (GCAA). Parish was the 10th Cowboy to receive the prestigious honor. The 2011-12 Cowboys had a team GPA of 3.39. Cowboys Jake Hedge, Eric Parish, Case Ruff and Eddie Stewart earned Academic All-Mountain West honors. Parish and Ruff also earned MW Scholar-Athlete awards. He also helped junior Clinton Boutelle to a 15th place finish at the Mountain West Championship. In 2010-11 Jensen directed senior Gabe Maier to his second consecutive NCAA Regional Tournament appearance. Maier was the first Cowboy since current PGA tour player David Hearn to earn consecutive NCAA Regional appearances. Maier also tied the school record low round at the Cowboy Classic in Scottsdale, Ariz., firing a 63 (-7). For the third consecutive season Jensen helped lead the Cowboys to a Golf Coaches Association of America All-Academic team. Cowboys Phil Henzlik, Parish and Ruff earned Mountain West Scholar-Athlete awards. Wyoming golf also had four student-athletes selected Academic All-MW, including Henzlik, Maier, Ruff and Zach Zaremba. The 2009-10 season was a banner year for the Cowboys as they sent their first golfer to the NCAA Regional Tournament since 2002, as well as being named a Golf Coaches Association of America All-Academic team. Cowboy Gabe Maier earned UW’s first NCAA Regional Tournament berth since 2002 with his 12th place finish at the Mountain West Conference Championship. Also during the 2009-10 season the Cowboys were named a GCAA All-Academic Team with a combined GPA of 3.18. Cowboy golfers Hen­zlik, Maier, Zaremba and Ruff were all named Academic All-MWC. Henzlik and Ruff also earned MWC Scholar-Athlete Awards. In addition to the numerous school records, the Wyoming golf program added two individual tournament championships in 2009.

UW COACHING STAFF Conference Championship and Cowboy Gabe Maier won the 2009 University of Wyoming Desert Intercollegiate. In the summer of 2009, Jensen was involved in the Palmer Cup, which is college golf’s version of the Ryder Cup. The event, which pits 10 American college players against 10 college players from Europe, was played at Cherry Hills Country Club in Denver, Colo. For his efforts with the Palmer Cup, Jensen was recognized by the Golf Coaches Association of America in December of that year. In 2007, the Cowgirls hosted the first annual Cowgirl Classic during the same week as the men’s event. The Cowgirls’ event will be held for the ninth consecutive season during the spring of 2015 at the Ak Chin Southern Dunes Golf Club in Maricopa, Ariz. In addition to the Cowboy and Cowgirl Classics held each spring in the Phoenix area, the Cowboys began hosting the Wyoming Desert Intercollegiate tournament in 2008. The sixth annual Desert Intercollegiate was held on Feb. 21-23, 2013 at the Classic Club in Palm Desert, Calif. The Classic Club is the host course of the PGA’s Bob Hope Chrysler Classic. In 2003, his second as head coach of the Cowboys, Jensen initiated the UW/Cleveland Golf Cowboy Classic Collegiate tournament. The event is held each spring in Scottsdale, Ariz., and hosts many of the top college golf programs in the country. The 2005 tournament marked Jensen’s Cowboy squad’s best finish with a second-place finish of the 20 teams in the event. Jensen’s teams annually excel in the classroom, as evident in 2005 and 2006 when Cowboy golfer Dan Silva was named a Cleveland Golf All- America Scholar by the GCAA in back-to-back years. In 2010, Phil Henzlik, Gabe Maier and Zach Zaremba were recognized for the honor, as Parish joined the list of Cowboys named a Cleveland Golf/Srixon All-America Scholar in 2013. During his first two seasons as head coach, Jensen coached All-Southwest Region selection Mike Urbatchka in 2002 and All-America Scholar honoree Kurt Kowaluk in 2003. His teams have also been recognized for their efforts off the course by winning the Athletics Director Award two times. The annual award, which is based on excellence in athletics, team GPA and community service, was given to the Cowboy golf team in 2001-02 and 2002-03. Active within the community, Jensen is currently on the University of Wyoming Academic Planning Committee. He is also Chairman of the Board of the UW First Tee Chapter, a nationally recognized junior golf program primarily supported by the PGA and USTA with a curriculum of life skills and golf skills. Jensen was instrumental in organizing UW’s First Tee program and served as the chapter’s executive director for a year. Jensen and his wife, Lacey, have a son, Samuel, and a daughter, Sydney.

JOSEY STENDER

(Memphis, 2003) Assistant Director of Golf & Women’s Head Coach Josey Stender enters her 14th season at the helm for the University of Wyoming women’s golf team in 2018-19. Stender has served as head coach of the Cowgirls and assistant director of Wyoming golf since August of 2005. The UW program has grown in leaps and bounds on the golf course during Stender’s tenure, while also continuing its tradition of achievements in the academic realm. Much of the success comes from Stender’s coaching philosophy, which exemplifies her compassion for molding young adults. In 2017-18, the Cowgirls recorded a couple of top-five finishes and a win at the Lady Thunderbird Invitational. At the Thunderbird, the Pokes recorded a final-round score of 292 (+4) to take home a two-shot victory at the event. The final round team score tied for second-best in Cowgirl history and the win was the first for UW since the fall of 2008. Stender helped guide senior Gabrielle Gibson to a strong final season as a Cowgirl with five top-10 individual finishes, including a win at the FIU Pat Bradley Invitational. Gibson recorded a 74.7 stroke average during her senior season. The 2017-18 season also saw impressive performances from sophomore Erin Sargent and junior Megan Knadler, who each recorded top-10 finishes during their campaigns. Sargent, Sarah Hankins and Caitlyn Skavdahl each earned All-American Scholar honors as well. The 2016-17 season concluded with UW earning five top-five finishes in its ten tournaments. The Cowgirls finished seventh at the MW Championships with a three-round total of 925 (+61). It was the second-best team score for the Brown and Gold in the 18 MW Championships they’ve competed in. Erin Sargent led the way for the Brown and Gold and tied for 21st in the individual rankings. With Sargent’s top-individual finish, it became the second-straight year a freshman has led UW at the championship. Gabrielle Gibson closed out her junior campaign with a 75.7 stroke average for second all-time in a single season. Additionally, senior Mackenzie Barrie closed out her final season with a 76.6 stroke average, as Sargent recorded a 76.7 average. Barrie’s season average is fifth-best in UW history. Sarah Hankins was joined by Barrie, Megan Knadler and Sargent as WGCA All-American Scholars. With four honorees, it was the most All-American Scholars Wyoming has had in the same year. The 2015-16 season UW was highlighted by a couple top-five finishes for the Cowgirls. Wyoming claimed second at the Bobcat Spring Invite and a fourth-place finish at the Grand Canyon Invite. At the GCU Invite, Stender guided Gibson to a second-place finish, which was the best of her career. It also became the top-individual finish for a Cowgirl since Juanita Rico finished second at the Guistana Memorial Classic in 2011. Just before conference play, UW was led by four Cowgirls in the top-20 at the Bobcat Spring Invite, with Klara Castillo and Kaylee Knadler each tied for fifth place. Additionally, Wyoming’s three-round total (894 +30) at the Bobcat Spring Invite was the fourth-best 54-hole score in program history. The third-round score of 294 (+6) was a season best and the third lowest in Cowgirl history. “I value the idea that members of our Wyoming golf team have a great college experience on and off the course,” she said of her athletes. “I look for well-rounded student-athletes who are willing to work hard to accomplish their goals athletically, while also striving to excel in the classroom for their future.” Stender’s list of achievements while directing the Cowgirls include helping the program rewrite the Wyoming record book and garnering multiple team and individual honors. Under her tutelage, the Cowgirls have posted their top-seven lowest team event scores and team round scores, including setting the best marks in both categories at the 2008 CU/Heather Farr Memorial. In the final round UW shot a 291 (+3), which gave them a score of 891 (+27) for the tournament. The Wyoming women also picked up their first team win in 10 years with a title at the Bronco Fall Invitational in 2008, while posting their first back-to-back, top-three team finishes during the 2011-12 season. Individually, several members of the UW women’s golf team have shined with the help of Stender. Juanita Rico set the Cowgirl record for lowest individual season stroke average at 75.5 during 2011-12, as she also became just the second UW woman to earn Mountain West Golfer of the Month accolades. Five of UW’s top six golfers in stroke average competed under Stender, while UW’s top three lowest individual rounds and top six lowest individual event scores have come with her guidance. Stender also coached Jonelle Martinez, who was one of the most accomplished golfers in Wyoming history. Martinez became the second Cowgirl to win an individual Mountain West Championship by claiming the title in 2009 and was named to the First Team All-Conference squad as well. In the classroom, the Cowgirls have earned a total of 31 Academic All-Mountain West honors and 12 MW Scholar-Athlete Awards during Stender’s tenure. Eight student-athletes have also been named All-American Scholars by the National Golf Coaches Association under Stender.
