Kelley Hester has been hired as the head coach for the new women's golf program at UNLV, the athletic department announced Monday.
Hester comes to Las Vegas from the University of Georgia where she was an assistant coach with its women's golf team. The UNLV women start intercollegiate competition in the fall. Hester has been at Georgia as assistant coach since February of 1999. After competing professionally on the Futures Tour in 1996 and '97, Hester was named head coach at Mercer University in her hometown of Macon, Ga., in 1998. She also served as assistant golf professional at Idle Hour Club in Macon from 1997-99. She is a member of the LPGA's Teaching and Club Professionals Division.
"The university is excited to start this new program," UNLV athletic director Charles Cavagnaro said. "Kelley has been involved with a very prestigious program at Georgia and has the abilities and leadership needed to guide our program. We are excited to have her."
