Dalton Deardorff has been named the first head men’s and women’s golf coach, leading Salisbury University’s newest two sports.

“I’m excited to have earned this incredible opportunity to create a golf program at Salisbury University,” said Deardorff. “To be able to work within a department that has already established itself for athletic prowess across so many programs is a great honor. As we begin recruiting for our first men’s and women’s classes, we’re looking forward to bringing in top-tier student-athletes who will lay the foundation to shape our program for the future.”
