KEVIN
MILLIKAN
Head Coach
 |
Kevin Millikan enters his fifth year as the Rams' head golf coach.
A native Texan born in Conroe, he is a former player at Wesleyan.
After graduating in 1991 from Robert E. Lee High School in Tyler,
Texas, Millikan attended Tyler Junior College until moving to Fort
Worth in 1993. He joined the Wesleyan golf team following the 1995
championship season, and has been involved with the program ever
since. |
As a player, Millikan participated in the 1997 NAIA National Golf
Championship, and was a member of the 1997 H.O.T. Conference
Championship Team. That season he was chosen by his teammates to
receive the Lewis & Dorothy Peek 3-D Award, given annually in
recognition of a player's desire, dedication and determination. In
both the 1996 and 1997 seasons, Millikan was nominated by the
coaching staff for the Gene & Ann Burge Sportsmanship
Award, given to the athlete who best upholds the ideals of amateur
sport.
Following his senior season, Millikan served as the Rams assistant
coach for two years before taking over as head coach after the
1999 National Championship season. In his four years as head
coach, the Rams qualified for the NCAA Regionals three times,
earning a national championship berth and 11th place finish in
2000. In 2002, despite a 2nd place finish at the NCAA Division II
South Central Super Regional and a statistical ranking of 13th in
the country, the Rams were overlooked for an at-large berth into
the national tournament. Last year, having rejoined the NAIA, the
team narrowly missed qualifying for the national championship,
finishing as first
alternate.
Millikan graduated in December 1998 with a Bachelor of Arts degree
in Psychology. He and his wife, Kelly, reside in Fort Worth.
