After the spring season was cut short for App State’s men’s golf team, the program needed a new head coach after Danny Forshey resigned.
App State Athletic Director Doug Gillin reached out to Jason Allison, who was then an assistant coach for the men’s basketball team, and had been for six years. Allison has history as a head golf coach at both Lees-McRae College and King College.
Allison took the job in June and immediately reached out to players and began bringing them together as a team in a sport based on individual scoring.
