Long-time OSU Women’s Golf Coach, Therese Hession was named Director of Golf for both the men’s and women’s golf programs at Ohio State. Hessioin is not the first woman to be named Director of Golf at a Division I school, Patty Post from Delaware was the first, but Hession is the first woman to hold the position at a Power Five Conference school.

This is a ground-breaking announcement as few women coach a men’s team at any level in college. Hession’s promotion represents a break in the barrier.

Hession has guided the Lady Buckeyes to 10 Big Ten Championships in her 27 seasons in Columbus and led the women’s team to an NCAA Championship appearance in six of the last eight years, including a trip to the quarterfinals in 2017.
