Fayetteville State University

Golf Historical Data since 1970

Coach McDougal is the only coach of a Fayetteville State University athletic program to win a national title
 
Men's Golf, the most successful athletic program at Fayetteville State University, was added as a varsity sport in 1970 under the direction of Coach Raymond McDougal.  In 1972, Dr. Moses Walker took over the leadership of the program because Coach McDougal was also directing the football program and he could not provide adequate leadership to both programs. Before becoming a varsity sport, golf was a club activity organized by basketball standout William Carter.  Carter would later participate in the Charlotte Tournament of Champions in 1948 and 1949 and won the championship both years with scores 270 and 280 respectively. 

Since joining the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association (CIAA) in 1970, the Bronco's golfers have won 26 CIAA titles, a number of PGA National Minority Golf Championships and have individual national medalists. 

Although golf is the most successful athletic program, it was not recognized by many in the Bronco family.  Golf was viewed as a recreational sport played by the elite. During the 1970's and 1980 the golf teams were ranked among the best in NCAA Division I and Division II institutions.  In 1979 Fayetteville State University became the first school in the CIAA to have a woman; Carolyn Jones, Rose Robin, Linda Robinson and Ruth Atkins, participate on an all-male team.

A couple of notable alums of FSU golf are NAIA District 26 All-Americans Andre Springs (1976) and Vincent Reid, who both coached at rival Livingstone College.  Springs led the Blue Bears to two CIAA Championships, 1984 and 1987.  He was later employed as a Golf Pro at Cleveland Heights Golf Course in Cleveland, Ohio.  He continued his career as a Golf Pro at Michael Jordon Golf Course in Charlotte, NC.  Kenneth Sims, Gary Robinson and Ricardo Stevens, former Bronco’s standouts, played on mini-tours.  Roger Pilgrim went on to law school and coached in the collegiate ranks.  Kenneth Sims, a Golf Pro at Rogers’ Golf Course in Miami, FL, played on the PGA Nationwide tours.
