Scott Simons

Interim Head Coach

Scott Simons has been hired as the interim women’s golf coach, Chadron State College athletic director Brad Smith announced on Feb. 11.

Simons replaces Michele Rickenbach, who resigned as golf coach at the end of 2008 after being promoted to interim assistant registrar at CSC. Rickenbach had been the coach since 2003.

Simons, a Chadron resident, is no stranger to golf. He played four years while attending Chadron High School and qualified for the Nebraska state tournament as a senior in 2002. He has also given golf lessons the last six years and helped coach junior golf programs at Ridgeview Country Club near Chadron.

In addition to his high school career, Simons has played in numerous tournaments.

“I really enjoy teaching the fundamentals of the game,” Simons said. “I love the game of golf and to help people enjoy it as much as I do is gratifying.”
