Mac Petty is in his fourth season as the head golf coach at Wabash College. He has also served as the fall golf coach for several years.
An avid golfer, Petty was the 2001 Crawfordsville Country Club MGA Player of the Year. His first career hole-in-one came in 1992. He currently carries a nine handicap. Last year he shot par (71) for an entire round.
Petty is no stranger to coaching. He is the winningest basketball coach in Wabash history. He was named the 1997 District Coach of the Year by the National Association of Basketball Coaches, marking the second time in his career (1982) that he has received that honor. He was inducted into the Greater Akron Baseball Hall of Fame in October of 2004, celebrating his outstanding baseball career during his high school and early collegiate days. He led the Little Giants to the NCAA Division III national title in 1982 and was enshrined in the Wabash Athletics Hall of Fame in 1996 and the Montgomery County Basketball Hall of Fame in 2007.
Petty and his wife, Gloria, reside in Crawfordsville. They have two grown children, Susan and Matt, and four grandchildren.
