Excellence, winning, sportsmanship, perseverance, and dignity are all associated with CBC's golf team. CBC golf has won 17 men's titles since 1965 and four women's titles since 1993, including the 2008 championship.
Dan Clifford was named Coach of the Year his first season with the Hawks after leading the women's team to the NWAACC championship. That is excellence; that is Columbia Basin Golf. It is a program that has sent numerous players to the Pac-10, Big West, West Coast, and other Division 1 conferences.
Clifford, a native to the area, is a 1977 graduate of Richland High School and played college golf at Mira Costa Junior College. He has been the Head Golf Professional of notable golf courses including West Richland Municipal Golf Course, Othello Golf Course, and most presently at Horn Rapids Golf Course.
"I can't wait to be part of a winning program; I look forward to the challenges that await me as CBC's Head Coach," Clifford said.
