[Women's Golf] Joe Demory named SAU women's golf coach

St. Ambrose Director of Athletics Mike Holmes announced the hiring of Joe Demory as the University's head women's golf coach.

Demory is one of the most decorated players in SAU men's golf history. A two-time All-American, the Sterling High School graduate led the 2004 Fighting Bees to a third-place finish at the NAIA National Championships. He earned all-conference honors four times and currently holds several St. Ambrose school records, including most wins in a single season (6 in 2005) and low scoring average (70.45 in 2005).

After earning his BA in Accounting from St. Ambrose in 2005, Demory played professionally for two-and-a-half years on various tours, primarily in the southeast. He returned to the Quad Cities in the winter of 2007 to pursue career opportunities outside of golf.

After several years away from the game, Demory returned to amateur golf before returning to the SAU golf program as a men's assistant coach in 2017.
