Why Millersville: Coach Vandegrift knows so much about the game of golf. He is a successful coach, and I wanted to play under a winning coach. The team is very close knit, and they are always supporting each other on the course and in life. Once I met the team, I knew I'd fit in well. Millersville is also a great university that fits my needs as a student.
