Brian Mackey is the first golfer in program history to compete at the NCAA Championships.  He returned this season as an assistant coach to the golf program and also serves as an assistant coach to both the men's and women's basketball teams.

Wayne Mackey is in his second season at the helm of the Charger golf team.  Last season he was named the Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference (CACC) Coach of the Year.
