PENSACOLA – The University of West Florida recently announced hiring UWF alumni Bryan Clarke to replace Navarre High School graduate Jennifer Pandolfi as its new women's golf coach. Clarke is a three-time All-American and member of the Argonaut’s 2001 Division II men's golf national championship team.

"Bryan's extensive experience as an instructor will assist in developing our young women's golf team," UWF athletic director Dave Scott said. "We expect to be competitive regionally and nationally, and we believe Bryan will guide our team to success."

Clarke will become the third head coach in UWF women's golf history. Robin Dezarn led the program from its first season in 2002-03 through 2009, and Pandolfi guided the team from 2010-2012. The Argonauts have won six Gulf South Conference championships in 10 seasons, the most in GSC history.
