Marci Kornegay

Director of Membership, WeCOACH

Kornegay, a former NCAA Division I golf coach, brings 20 years of experience in collegiate golf as a Coach and LPGA Teaching Professional, including her playing career at The University of Mississippi. As head coach at University of South Florida, Kornegay earned two Big East Coach of the Year honors in 2010 and 2012, coached Big East Player and Freshmen of the Year in 2008, 2010, 2012, and coached a Big East team championship in 2012. Kornegay held office as vice president of the Big East and American Conference Coaches Committee from 2010-2016 and served on the NCAA DI Golf Championship selection committee from 2012-2015. In 2016, following her coaching career at USF and assistant coaching positions at Louisiana State University, Winthrop University, and University of South Carolina, Marci completed a four-month long, 2,189 mile thru-hike from Maine to Georgia on the Appalachian Trail. This was a dream accomplishment prior to becoming a Realtor® in her hometown of Savannah, GA and joining her family in the Real Estate business.

 

Marci’s enthusiasm in personal and professional development is contagious as she has influenced several players to begin collegiate and high school golf coach and athletic administration careers. A graduate of the NCAA Women Coaches Academy in 2011, Marci holds a master’s degree in Organizational Leadership and Change Management and is an LPGA Teaching Professional and holds a real estate license. In her spare time, she is entertained by hiking, biking, photography, playing golf, and travel.
