MARIALOPEZ

The Embry-Riddle women’s golf team has a great source of golf knowledge leading them through the season thanks to Head Coach Maria Lopez’s experiences, as both a collegiate golfer and touring professional. Since Lopez’s arrival at ERAU in 2000, she has produced 12 All-Americans, 20 honorable mention All-Americans, 25 NAIA-Daktronics All-America Scholar-Athletes, 25 NAIA All-Region XIV selections, 35 All-Sun Conference selections, six NAIA Region XIV/Sun Conference Players of the Year, 20 regular season titles, seven Region XIV/TSC titles and 12 National Championship appearances.

Lopez pioneered the women’s golf program at ERAU in 2000 and is in her 17th season of coaching the Eagle women. During her tenure, the Embry-Riddle women’s golf team has accrued seven regional championships, 19 tournament titles and has earned ten national championship appearances in a row. As individuals, there have been four regional medalists, 17 individual titles, 11 All-Americans, 20 honorable mention All-Americans, 15 National Championship All-Tournament team members, 31 All-Sun Conference team members, 23 All-Region XIV team members, five Conference/Region Players of the Year, 16 Academic All-Americans and 17 Academic All-Conference recipients. The women’s golf squad was the inaugural NAIA Buffalo Funds Champions of Character Team in 2006 and recognized as an NAIA Scholar Team in 2010.

In 2003, Lopez assumed the head coach position of the men’s golf program. From 2003-10 Lopez coached the men’s team to four team titles, two National Championship appearances, a conference championship runner-up team finish and 12 top-three finishes. In addition Lopez’s student-athletes have garnered individual honors, including three individual titles, one All-America honor, one Sun-Conference Player of the Year, four All- Sun Conference team members, two All-Region XIV team members, one Region XIV A.O. Duer Award Winner, 13 Academic All-Americans and 12 Academic All-Conference recipients. The men’s golf squad was also recognized as an NAIA Scholar Team in 2010.

Lopez’s teams have not just proven themselves on the field of play, but also in the classroom. During her coaching tenure, the men’s and women’s golf teams have placed at least one player on the Conference All-Academic list every year. In 2009, the women’s golf team posted a 3.7 GPA, the highest of ERAU’s 16 athletics programs for the third year in a row. Lopez also served as the director of the Embry-Riddle Braddock Education Success Team (BEST Program) from 2001-05, overseeing and implementing the department’s academic enhancement program.

Lopez was named the 2007 Coach of the Year by the The Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) Teaching and Club Professional (T&CP), marking the first time a coach from a NAIA institution has been given the award. The LPGA Coach of the Year Award, presented by Etonic, was established in 1980, and is awarded annually to a female golf professional actively engaged in teaching and/or coaching golf at the collegiate or high school level.

In 2010-11, Lopez led the women’s golf team to a second-place finish at the NAIA National Tournament in one of the most exciting finishes in NAIA history, tying the the 2007-08 team for the best finish for any Embry-Riddle golf team on the national stage. The 2007-08 team’s 3.7 GPA was also the second highest of any athletic team in the entire NAIA. Lopez has also been very active in the NAIA at the national, regional and conference levels. She recently completed her last term as President of the NAIA Women’s Golf Coaches Association and now serves as the women’s golf rater for The Sun Conference. Lopez has also held positions as the regional women’s golf rater and the men’s and women’s regional golf chair.

A three-year letter winner at Alabama, Lopez competed for the Crimson Tide from 1989-92. During her tenure at Tuscaloosa, Lopez also won a U.S. Amateur sectional qualifier, earning her the right to participate in the 1992 US Women’s Amateur. Lopez was a Dean’s List student at Alabama and graduated in 1993 with a bachelor’s degree in nutrition/hospitality management.

After graduation, Lopez made the jump to the professional ranks, beginning with the Futures Tour in 1993.

During that time, she also competed on the Asian (1994, 1997), European and Australian Tours (1994). In 1998, she retired from full time competition after a long battle with injuries. Lopez returned to competitive golf in 2000 and occasionally competes in various professional events in order to maintain and sharpen her skills as a player and instructor.

Since 1994, Lopez has caddied numerous LPGA and Futures Tour events. Her experience as a player and keen eye for instruction makes caddying and coaching a natural fit. Lopez has coached professional players to five LPGA Tour memberships, appearances in five US Women’s Open Championships, three Nabisco Championships, two Canadian Opens, one Women’s British Open and one USGA Public Links Championship. Throughout the year, Lopez will work with tour players, and on occasion, they play with her teams during the off-season. Tracy Hanson, Jamie Hullett, Katherine Hull and Kristen Samp have been great friends and mentors to the program.

The product of a true “American Dream” story, Lopez is the youngest child of Cuban immigrants Julian and Dora Lopez. Younger sister to Julian Jr. and Nancy, her golf roots may have been predictable as she competed in her first golf tournament with them at the age of three. Lopez credits her family, especially her grandmother Margie and sister Nancy, as the inspiration to make a difference in young peoples’ lives.

Lopez is currently a Class A member of the LPGA Teaching and Club Professional Division and a certified Henry-Griffitts golf club fitter. She serves as a National Educator and Mentor to apprentice members. During the school year, Lopez serves as a guest instructor on campus for Introduction to Health and Fitness, Fellowship of Christian Athletes and various Hispanic and female awareness initiatives.

Lopez currently resides in Ormond Beach and is working on her thesis for her master’s degree in Human Factors Psychology and Systems Engineering at Embry-Riddle.

The K-Vest Advantage K-VEST’s cutting-edge technology enables professionals to stay at the forefront of the very competitive golf performance industry. Today’s top facilities are constantly looking for innovative ways to improve their clients’ experience, increase revenue, and differentiate services. K-VEST provides easily customizable technology and dynamic marketing solutions to attract and retain new golfers.

The system’s user-friendly capture, analysis, and training software precisely measures swing efficiency and movement patterns. The real-time visual and auditory feedback keeps students coming back to your facility because they are able to monitor and track their progress over time. K-VEST’s comprehensive solution features include: TPI 3D Software Developed by the Titleist Performance Institute, TPI 3D measures swing efficiency via the kinematic sequence and allows users to compare swing patterns to the world’s top PGA and LPGA players.

K-SWING Summary Simple and automated 3D analysis provides user-friendly reporting, comparative PGA/LPGA averages, and one click delivery of real-time training.

Video Analysis Allows users to simultaneously capture 3D and video, which can be viewed in single capture or in split screen mode with illustrative drawing tools.

Real-Time Feedback Real-time visual and auditory biofeedback can be used to improve every aspect of the golf swing, including set up, backswing, top and impact positions.

Player Testimonies “I use the K-Vest system to confirm what I’m feeling. If I feel my hands are starting first then followed by my hips, K-Vest can confirm it. There’s a sensor on your wrist and one on your back which tracks the motion of the three major components of the swing; your hands and your upper and lower body rotations. The data you receive is unparalleled.

The system analyzes every part of your swing, which has allowed me to fine tune my skills and become a better golfer.” – Sneh Patel “I enjoy using the K-Vest system because it gives me a chance to see my swing and mechanics. It puts my swing in perspective and shows me where I can improve. It’s helped improve my swing by showing me little tweaks in my alignment, posture and the turn at the top of my swing. These are three keys that I’ve been adjusting this semester and without K-Vest it wouldn’t be as easy to do on my own.” - Connie Pitenis

KENSTATON

In the summer of 2010, Embry-Riddle Director of Athletics Steve Ridder announced the hiring of Ken Staton as the head coach of the men’s golf program. Staton assumed the role of head coach after working with Maria Lopez as the assistant coach to both the men’s and women’s programs for two seasons and is entering his fourth season at the helm of the men’s team in 2013-14.

Staton had a successful first year as head coach of the men’s program in 2010-11. Individually, Jackson Koert became the first men’s golf All-American under Staton’s leadership, earning third team honors for the second consecutive year. Staton’s team also made a mark in the record books as the Eagle men garnered the lowest team season stroke average in Embry-Riddle history with a 303.3, besting the 2006-07 team’s average of 303.4. Staton’s team also tied the 2006-07 team’s lowest single round of 278 (-4) and tied the 2004-05 and 2009-10 teams for the sixth lowest single round in ERAU history at 286 (-2). Additionally, the 2010-11 team earned three spots in the top 10 for the lowest 54-hole score in a tournament. The team’s 294-278307=879 at the Camp LeJeune Gold Championship tied for second, while the team’s 297-286-299=882 at the Southeastern Fire Classic and 297-302-296=895 at The Sun Conference Championship put him in fourth and tied for sixth respectively.

In his third season at the helm, Staton led the Blue and Gold to several marks in the Eagle record book.

The team narrowly missed out on winning two tournaments, placing in second at the Webber Invitational and the Bash at the Beach. In 2012-13 the team had the best season stroke average in Eagle history with a 301.4.

The team also had the fifth lowest 54-hole score in ERAU history with an 887 at the Webber International Invitational, and the seventh lowest 54-hole score with an 891 at the TSC Spring Major at Warner.

In 2012-13 individually, Staton’s team was honored with two NAIA All-American Scholar Athlete selections, one All-Conference and Academic All-Conference selection. His 2013-14 squad also posted highest cumulative grade point average among all ERAU teams of 3.48.

A native of Daytona Beach, Staton has a wealth of experience, as he has had great success as a junior-amateur competitor, a collegiate athlete and as a member of several professional tours. Staton played on the PGA Tour from 2002-03, where he garnered two top-five finishes. He was a member of the Nationwide Tour in 1999, 2004, 2005 and 2007 and earned four top-20 finishes during that tenure. Staton was a six-time champion on the Canadian Tour from 1998-01, winning the BC Tel Open, MCTV Benefit Partners Classic, MTS Classic, AMEX SAQ Championship, Telus Open and the Tour Championship Niagara Falls. As a member of the Mini Tours (1995-98), he was a four-time winner of the Tommy Armour and two-time champion of the Riviera Open. Staton also placed second on the 2006 Hooter’s Tour.

Staton was a four-year letterwinner at Florida State and graduated in 1995 with a bachelor’s degree in Marketing. He was an All-American and team captain in his senior year and led the Seminoles to a seventh place finish at the NCAA DI Championship in 1995, where he placed 14th overall. During the 1994 regular season at FSU, Staton won the Rattler Invitational and the Riviera Open and went on to finish 32nd at the NCAA DI Championship. He was also named a Savane College All-American for the 1994 season.

As a junior-amateur competitor, he finished first at the 1994 Volusia Amateur Championship and second in the 1993 North Florida Amateur. In 1990, he won the AJGA Midwestern Junior and placed second at the AJGA Rolex Tournament of Champions.

Staton also worked as golf instructor and rules official for the Volusia/Flagler Junior Golf Association from 1990-96 and was an assistant golf instructor for Riviera Junior Clinics in 1995. Before officially joining the Embry-Riddle coaching staff, Staton helped the Eagles during winter months and has coached several former Embry-Riddle golfers, most notably Deah Reubel.

Staton resides in Daytona Beach with his wife Sasha and son Nash.

DAVEPASCHAL Dave Paschal became Embry-Riddle University’s third head men’s tennis coach and second head women’s tennis coach in the history of the two storied programs in Aug. 2004.

Now in his 13th season with the Blue and Gold, Paschal is the most successful coach in both men’s and women’s tennis at ERAU, having amassed over 100 wins with each program. Entering the 2016-17 season, his coaching record with the men’s team is 229-45, while the women have posted a 177-92 mark.

Paschal built both tennis programs into perennial NAIA powerhouses. The men’s team captured 11 consecutive Sun Conference crowns, while the women won the conference title in 2005, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2014 and finished second in the league 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2013 and 2015. Prior to the regional realignment by the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics, both teams won consecutive regional titles - the men in 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008, and the women in 2005 and 2006. Both teams earned berths in the NAIA National Tournament in Mobile, Ala. with men going in 11 consecutive seasons and the women going 10 times.

After reaching the semifinals of national tournament team competition for seven consecutive seasons, the Embry-Riddle men’s team reached the pinnacle of NAIA competition in 2013, taking home the NAIA national title. Playing in one of the most exciting championship matches in national tournament history, the Eagles downed Auburn Montgomery 5-4, to bring the team title back to Daytona Beach.

In the next two seasons, Paschal’s men’s squad continued to dominate against NAIA competition, posting identical 21-4 records in 2014 and 2015, and playing in the national championship match in each of those two seasons.

In 2012, Paschal led the women to first national title match. After going undefeated in league play, the Eagles won the conference tournament title and went into the NAIA National Tournament as the No. 3 team in the country. That rating gave the Eagles a first-round bye after which they registered back-to-back shutouts to secure the program’s second semifinal berth. The Blue and Gold drew No. 2 Fresno Pacific in the semifinal round and earned a dramatic 5-3 win over the Lady Sunbirds to advance to the national championship match for the first time in program history.

The 2014 women’s team swept through conference regular season and tournament play with another undefeated league campaign and earned the No. 5 seed in the national tournament field. The Eagles upset defending national champion Auburn Montgomery and toppled top-seed Xavier (La.) to return to the title match where they lost a hardfought 5-4 battle to Georgia Gwinnett.

In 2016, the Eagles’ first season of provisional membership in NCAA II, Paschal’s men’s squad turned in a 12-3 overall record, downing the No. 1, No. 4 and No. 10-ranked teams along the way. The men were ranked eighth in the final ITA/NCAA II poll, while the women finished the season ranked No. 44.

Paschal has also coached Eagle student-athletes to 13 individual national titles. The ERAU men’s and women’s teams have won a combined six USTA/ITA national doubles titles, while the men’s team has brought seven national singles titles back to Daytona Beach.

Under Paschal’s guidance, the Eagles garnered conference Men’s Player of the Year honors 10 times and Player of the Year honors on the women’s side six times. In addition, 137 players received either ITA or NAIA All-America recognition and each team has placed at least three student-athletes on their respective All-Conference rosters each of the last 11 seasons.

Paschal was named The Sun Conference (formerly the Florida Sun Conference) Coach of the Year 10 times on the men’s side and five times for the women. He also garnered the NAIA’s highest coaching honor in both men’s and women’s tennis as he was named the men’s National Coach of the Year in 2008 and 2013, and the women’s National Coach of the Year in 2011 and 2012.

Paschal’s coaching background includes stints as the head men’s tennis coach at NCAA Division I Southern Illinois University-Carbondale (1995-96) and as assistant men’s and women’s tennis coach at NCAA Division III power Washington College (Md.) (1994-95).

Paschal also served as the head men’s tennis coach at Drake (Des Moines, Iowa) from 1996-2003 and held the women’s head coaching position from 1998-99. During his time with the Bulldogs, Paschal helped guide his squad to the finals of the Missouri Valley Conference championship four times (1997, 1998, 2000, 2001) and qualified for the ITA Region V team championships in 1998, 1999, 2000 and 2003. He coached 16 All-MVC honorees and his men’s squads garnered ITA National team rankings three times attaining their highest mark of 51st in the nation.

In addition to the team’s on-court success, the 1993 Southern Illinois University-Edwardsville graduate also brings a coaching style and philosophy, which fosters academic success. He coached 20 Academic All-MVC selections and two Academic All-Americans during his eight-year tenure at Drake and since his arrival at ERAU, 267 individuals have garnered ITA Scholar Athlete, NAIA Scholar Athlete, ESPN The Magazine Academic All-America and Academic All-Conference honors, including Kristina Marova who was tabbed as the 2014 CoSIDA College Division At-Large Academic All-American of the Year. Both programs have received team recognition for outstanding work in the class from the NAIA and the ITA. The women’s team had a cumulative grade point average of 3.3 in 2009-10, while the men’s team had a 3.5 GPA. The women (2005) and men (2006, 2009) have also been recognized for carrying the highest GPA of any ERAU athletic team.

In the off-season, Paschal directs the highly successful Embry-Riddle Tennis Camps, which provide instruction for aspiring young tennis players.

Originally from Ocala, Fla., Wollett came to Embry-Riddle from the College of Charleston where he served as the assistant coach for the NCAA I men’s and women’s tennis programs last season. The 2014 Cougars men’s team achieved a No. 64 ITA national ranking during the season and notched wins against No. 57 Iowa, UC Riverside and Georgia State on the way to an 18-6 overall record. The women’s team was 18-8, earning wins against the University of Massachusetts and No. 65 Iowa. Both teams posted runner-up finishes in Colonial Athletic Association tournament play.

Prior to going to College of Charleston, Wollett was the head coach of the women’s tennis program at Western Carolina University from 2010-13 and before that, he was the Director of Tennis at the Country Club of Ocala in Ocala, Fla. Wollett played two seasons of collegiate tennis at the University of Mary Washington where he helped the Eagles to a national tournament appearance and a top-10 ranking in NCAA III in 2002.

In his first year (2005), Embry-Riddle participated in their first Florida Sun Conference/Region XIV meet where the men’s and women’s teams both finished second in the conference and fourth and sixth, respectively, overall. He sent two runners to compete at the NAIA National Championships, a first in school history.

The following year was a great year for Rosolino as he sent runners to both the NAIA Indoor and Outdoor National Championships and came back with two All-Americans. On the national stage, his team was awarded the Buffalo Funds Five Star Award, honoring a team who embraces the five core character values of the NAIA. In 2007, the Eagle men earned their first conference championship under Rosolino and he was named the men’s conference Coach of the Year. The 2008 campaign was a great success as the men’s team repeated as Sun Conference Champions and Rosolino repeated as the conference Coach of the Year on the men’s side. In 2009, the men’s team clinched their third consecutive Sun Conference crown and the women’s team earned their first Sun Conference title. Rosolino was named the Sun Conference Coach of the Year for both the men and women. The 2010 season saw both the men’s and women’s squads add another conference championship to the trophy case, giving the men four straight titles while the women won their second consecutive championship. The 2011 season was arguably the greatest season in school history, as Rosolino coached two athletes to a total of three national titles, both squads captured conference titles and both the men’s and women’s teams placed in the top 12 at both the indoor and outdoor NAIA National Championships. The 2012 season was greater than the last, as Rosolino coached three athletes to a total of four national titles, both squads continued to dominate The Sun Conference as each won another title and the women placed in the top five in both the indoor and outdoor NAIA National Championships. During the 2013 campaign, Rosolino coached three athletes to three national titles, both squads won conference titles and had solid performances in the NAIA National Championships as the women finished 12th in the indoor and 18th at the outdoor, while the men finished 18th at both meets.

Along with training top-of-the-line athletes, Rosolino sets the highest standards for his athletes in the classroom. In the past nine seasons, he has coached 43 Daktronics-NAIA Scholar-Athlete honorees. His teams have also consistently earned NAIA Scholar Team recognition.

A long-time veteran of the sport, Rosolino came to Embry-Riddle from Presbyterian College in Clinton, S.C., where he spent two years on the coaching staff for the Blue Hose. He began his stint at PC as an assistant coach and was elevated to the head job after just six months. Despite the brevity of his tenure with the program, Rosolino guided the Blue Hose to their best finishes in school history, producing two South Atlantic Conference Runners of the Year and a Freshman of the Year in the process.

Rosolino’s teams were equally as successful off the field. Four student-athletes earned Academic All-American status under his watchful eye, while both squads earned Academic All-America Team accolades. Prior to earning his position within the Presbyterian athletic department, Rosolino spent four academic years (199701) as the Director of Residence Life in Clinton. He also served as Resident Director for one year (1996-97) while attending graduate school.

A former standout runner for Rhodes College in Memphis, Tenn., Rosolino helped the Lynx to three Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference (SCAC) cross country titles from 1993-95. In his final season, he assumed the role of team captain and finished 11th overall at the SCAC Championship meet. Rosolino also ran two seasons for the Rhodes track team, competing in the middle to long distance races. In 1995, he finished fifth at the SCAC Championships in the steeplechase. An Academic All-American for Rhodes in 1994 and 1995, Rosolino was a National Merit finalist and earned distinction as a National Science Scholar.

Rosolino earned his bachelor’s degree in mathematics from Rhodes in 1996. He went on to receive his Master of Education degree from the University of South Carolina in 1998 with an emphasis on student personnel services. He also graduated from Loyola College in New Orleans in 2009 with a Master of Pastoral Studies, and is currently pursuing a third master’s degree in Theology from Saint Leo University in Tampa.

Rosolino also holds a Level II certification from USA Track and Field.

Rosolino and his wife Carrie have been married for 18 years and reside in Port Orange with daughter Lynnlee and son Tanner.

JOHN

PHILLIPS

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS John Phillips was named Embry-Riddle’s Director of Athletics in January 2014 after serving as the Eagles’ Associate Athletics Director for seven years.

Born and raised in Kensington, Maryland, Phillips came to Daytona Beach in 1989, enrolling as a student at Embry-Riddle. Phillips played baseball for the Eagles for three seasons, while completing both his undergraduate (B.S., 1990) and graduate degrees (M.S., 1992).

Phillips returned to the University as the program’s first-ever Director of Sports Marketing and Promotions in August 1997, and was subsequently named Assistant Director of Athletics in 1998. In 2007, he was named Associate Director of Athletics, supervising the day-to-day operations of the athletic department, including facilities, game management, sports information, sports medicine and sports marketing for the Daytona Beach campus.

During his tenure at Embry-Riddle, Phillips has served as the tournament director for all nine NAIA national championships that Embry-Riddle has hosted, including five for golf and four national soccer tournaments. In 2008, the NAIA honored him with the Charles Morris Award as the NAIA’s National Athletic Administrator of the Year. In addition, he was honored by The Sun Conference as the league’s Athletic Director of the Year in 2014-15.

In 2010, Phillips was named to the Board of Directors for the National Association of Collegiate Marketing Administrators (NACMA), becoming just the second administrator from an NAIA institution to be named to this board. In addition to serving on the Board of Directors for NACMA, he is also a past chair of the NAIA-NACMA Advisory Board, a panel of NAIA administrators that provided leadership and professional development opportunities in sports marketing to other NAIA institutions.

Internally, Phillips has served the University in numerous other capacities during his 19-years on staff, including Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) Reaccreditation Audit Team, ERAU’s Women’s Initiative Committee, ERAU’s Diversity and Inclusion Task Force and the Embry-Riddle Alumni Advisory Council.

Locally, Phillips currently serves as the Chair of the Daytona Beach Convention & Visitors Bureau’s Sports Advisory Committee. This committee is charged with providing guidance and marketing expertise in attracting regional, national and international sporting events to the Daytona Beach community. In 2015, he was nominated to serve on the Halifax Area Advertising Authority (HAAA) Board of Directors. HAAA is charged with promoting tourism offerings within the greater Daytona Beach area, from Ponce Inlet to Ormond By The Sea. During his tenure at Embry-Riddle, the sports marketing and promotions staff has earned 24 NACMA “Best of” awards, including gold medals for things such as “sponsorship activation,” “best student promotion” and “best targeted group promotion.” He has been a featured speaker on topics related to sports marketing at the NAIA convention on seven different occasions, at the CoSIDA Convention in 2011 and 2012, and at the NACMA Convention on eight separate occasions since 2008. He has presented on topics such as “Big Time Promotions on a Small-Time Budget,” Social Networking and the “Brand of You.” The sports information staff at Embry-Riddle has also garnered national attention during his tenure, capturing over 60 CoSIDA awards for Excellence in Publications.

ERAU Sports Information was also honored on seven occasions with the NAIA’s Gary Spitler Award for the best overall sports publications in the NAIA. Phillips has also served as the voice of Embry-Riddle basketball for the last 19 seasons and has also done broadcast work for the Eagles baseball team since 1999. In addition to his broadcast work for ERAU, he has worked as the public address announcer for both the Daytona Cubs and DeLand High School football. In his current role with WNDB (1150-AM & 93.5-FM), he anchors WNDB’s motorsports coverage for events such as the Rolex 24, the Daytona 500 and the Coke Zero 400. He has also served as the play-by-play announcer for high school football and basketball, working for WSBB (New Smyrna Beach), WNDA (DeLand) and WELE (Ormond Beach).

Phillips and his wife Ann are parents of Lauren, Zachary and Rachel.

EMBRY-RIDDLE GOLF STUDIO The Embry-Riddle men’s and women’s golf teams have added a new studio space to their list of practice facilities.

“Inside the studio you will find the latest technology to help our student-athletes work on their game right here on campus,” said Head Coach Maria Lopez. “We have K-Vest, Neurocore Technology, and the OptiShot simulator, as well as a putting green and indoor chipping and hitting area.”

The OptiShot simulator has a TV with a sensor and camera.

Similar to playing virtual golf, the simulator tracks and sends the ball traveling on the course when you swing.

The K-Vest swing training system has 3D motion capture system analysis that reveals what is going in the swing and gives biofeedback training.

Neurocore Technology is a virtual and focus training system that aims to help golfers work on their game management and competitive flow.

Along with a storage facility, the studio also serves as a clubhouse where student-athletes can meet as a team or study individually.

The walls of the studio showcase some of the programs’ history with photos of past Eagle golfers and lists of their individual and team accomplishments. The studio serves as a place of recognition, a monument and a mini golf hall of fame.

“The studio is a great time saver because it can take 30 minutes or more to drive to any of our courses,” said Head Coach Ken Staton. “So my players can still do training in between classes or other down times to get that repetition and individual work in. Every other sport has a facility on campus and now we do as well. It’s a great resource for our teams and student-athletes.”
