Daniel Park is in his third season as assistant coach for the UTSA women's golf program.

Park helped lead the Roadrunners to three team titles, including their second straight Conference USA crown, and four additional top-five finishes in his first season with the program in 2018-19.

UTSA won the season-opening Lady Maxwell Invitational and also finished atop the leaderboard at the Texas State Invitational. The Roadrunners successfully defended their league championship in April, as Ana Gonzalez fired a 9-under 207 (69-67-71) to win by five shots and give UTSA back-to-back C-USA medalists, while the team carded a school-record 10-under 854 to finish 12 strokes ahead of runner-up Charlotte. The Roadrunners then advanced to their second straight and fifth overall NCAA postseason, finishing 14th at the Norman Regional.

Gonzalez garnered first-team all-conference honors and Julie Houston picked up second-team accolades to become the fourth Roadrunner to earn all-league plaudits in each of her four seasons. Houston also earned a spot on the C-USA All-Academic Team for the second straight year.

In his second season with the program, UTSA captured a pair of tournament titles and one individual crown, while Gonzalez collected third-team all-conference accolades. The Roadrunners captured their second straight Texas State Invitational championship behind individual medalist Hannah Holzmann in February. The following month, UTSA won the team title at its annual home tournament, the Maryb S. Kauth Invitational, behind a 2-3 finish from Camryn Carreon and Holzmann. That event was the last of the campaign, as all spring sport competition and championships were canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Park came to San Antonio from Auburn, Ala., where he held dual roles as a golf coach at Auburn High School since February 2017 and a marketing and tournament director for the Southeastern Junior Golf Tour since August of last year.

While at Auburn High, he helped the Tigers to three tournament titles in 2018 and helped tutor NCAA Division I signees and prospects.

Park also was a tournament services intern with Global Golf Management in Opelika, Ala., where he helped promote event opportunities and assisted with general operations during PGA Tour's Barbasol Championship in 2017.

Park also was a public speaking instructor with Auburn University's Communication Department from 2015 to 2017 while he completed his master's degree in communication.

A former standout collegiate golfer for Alabama State, Park helped the Hornets to three consecutive conference championships in 2013-15. He collected first-team all-conference honors and was a Cleveland/Srixon All-American Scholar as a senior in 2015.

Park was a President's Award recipient and a member of the Dean's Honor Roll each year of college. He graduated summa cum laude with a 3.94 GPA and a bachelor's degree in communication with a minor in finance in May 2015 from Alabama State.

A native of Kendal, England, he and his wife, Shanon, were married in 2017.
