Renee Baumgartner has served as the Athletic Director at Santa Clara since 2015. Baumgartner captained the USC women’s golf team when she was in college, and played an integral role in starting the Oregon women’s golf team. She worked in administrative roles at Oregon and Syracuse before joining Santa Clara with a mission to revitalize the sports program.In this episode, we get into some of my big questions about athletics at a school known for its top-tier education in Silicon Valley. We discuss what success looks like, and what steps are being taken to get there. We also explore Renee’s personal golf career, her coaching philosophy, how she plans to get the student body involved and how college sports will change in the next 20 years.This is a short and sweet conversation, and I started out a little skeptical that Santa Clara cold have a successful sports program. But, as you’ll hear Renee convinced me otherwise, and I’m now a believer that great things are coming for Santa Clara sports.Website link: https://www.voicesofsantaclara.com/renee-baumgartner Hosted on Acast.
