Position:	Head Coach

Kevin Farrell begins his first season as the women's golf head coach in 2011-12 and will enter his third season at the helm of the men's golf team.

“The women’s golf team has made some great strides in the last couple of seasons and I look forward to build on that foundation,” said Farrell. “I am excited for the challenge of helping both the men’s and women’s golf teams to the top tier of the Northeast Conference.”

Farrell, who enters his third season as the men’s golf head coach, guided the men’s golf program to a third-place finish at the Northeast Conference Men’s Golf Championships last season. It was the squad’s best finish since the 1998 season. Sophomore Devin O’Grady paced the Mount with a ninth-place finish to earn NEC All-Tournament honors. Under Farrell ‘s tutelage, the men’s golf team also finished second at the ECAC Championships (Oct. 1-2, 2010) and fourth in the Penn Quaker Invitational (Apr. 3-4, 2011) last season. In Farrell’s first season, the men finished fourth at the NEC Championships.

Farrell was a standout golfer on the Mountaineers men’s golf team from 2004-08. He finished in the Top-10 at the NEC Championships in both his junior and senior seasons to earn spots on the All-NEC team. Farrell is one of five players in team history to earn finish in the Top-10 at the NEC Championships twice in his career and his three-round score of 220 at the 2008 NEC Championships is still the record for three rounds at the NEC Championships.

The Mount women’s golf team finished eighth last season at the NEC Championships. Each round at the 2011 NEC Championships ranked in the program’s Top-10 for single rounds at the NEC Championships and the two-round (687) and three-round (1035) scores are the second-best marks in team history. Christina Koerper, a 2009 graduate of the Mount, will enter her second season as an assistant coach for the women’s golf program.
