Winger named men's assistant golf coach at Michigan State EAST LANSING, Mich. - Bowling Green State University men's golf coach Garry Winger announced Friday his resignation to accept the assistant coaching position at Michigan State University. "Bowling Green has been my home for the last 14 years," said Winger. "The athletic department and community have been a second family to me. The valuable experience I have gained at BGSU will help me continue my career at Michigan State University." Winger replaces former Spartan All-American Ryan Brehm on the MSU coaching staff. Brehm resigned from his position in May to fully pursue his professional golf career. During Winger's tenure at Bowling Green, the Falcons won nine team collegiate events, in addition to 10 individual titles. Also individually, Winger has coached four All-MAC selections and two Cleveland All-America Scholars. Aside from the Falcons' success on the course, Winger also has been integral in team and athletic department fundraising, including developing the first-ever men's golf endowment and raising funds to build the Falcon Golf Training Center and a wedge range at the Forrest Creason Golf Course. While acting as head coach at BGSU, Winger also held the position of assistant director of golf at Forrest Creason Golf Course from 1998-2004, in addition to instructing golf course classes through BGSU's School of Human Movement during that time. A 1994 BGSU graduate with a degree in business, Winger concluded his Falcon career with the program's lowest career scoring average (75.0), single-season scoring average (72.4) and 54-hole record (210). A second-team All-MAC selection and MAC Sportsmanship Award winner as a senior, Winger placed third at the MAC Championships in 1994 and sixth in 1993.
