Our guest speaker for next meeting will be Dan Brooks, Head Women’s Golf Coach at Duke University. In 38 years as the coach of the Duke Blue Devils, he has helped guide his squads to seven NCAA National Championships, 21 ACC Championships and 140 team victories, which is the most of any women’s golf coach in Division I history. Other accomplishments include a final ranking of No. 1 seven years in a row (2001-07); 10 straight top 10 finishes at the NCAA Championship from 2001-10; a final No. 1 ranking in 2021 and much more.
