Williamsburg, KY – University of the Cumberlands Athletic Director Chris Kraftick has announced that UC alum and Hall of Famer Aaron Watkins has been named the fifth Head Men's and Women's Golf Coach, announced by the athletic department Tuesday.  Watkins replaces Taylor Riggs, who stepped down earlier this month to become the Head Women's Golf Coach at Cleveland State.

"It's great to have a former player in charge of the program. Aaron had a Hall of Fame career at UC and was not only a tremendous player but a great teammate," said Kraftick.  "He is extremely motivated to not only continue the success our women have seen but get the men back to heights he saw as a player."
