Franklin & Marshall College Women's Golf

Ord begins his eighth season as the head women's golf coach at F&M in the 2016-17 school year.  Last season, Ord helped guide Kathleen Smith '16 to her second career All-Centennial Conference (CC) accolades, becoming just the fourth women's golfer in program history to do so, when the senior tied for fifth out of 29 competitors at the 2016 Championships.  In 2015, the Diplomats secured their second straight fourth-place showing at the Centennial Conference (CC) Championships, after Smith placed second after carding a 160 (83-77) at the two-day event. Her finish was the highest for a Diplomat since 2010, as Smith became the program's 10th All-CC member and the first in five years.  A '90 graduate of Slippery Rock University with a B.S. in Business Administration, Ord's professional golf career started in 1992. He gained full membership into the PGA in 1996 and is currently the PGA Director of Golf at Overlook Golf Course.  While at Slippery Rock University, Ord was a four-year standout pitcher for the baseball program. In 1989, SRU baseball competed in the National College World Series where Ord was the winning pitcher in Game 2. Along with baseball, he has excelled in other sports as he's competed in national events in ice hockey as well.  Ord resides in Lancaster County with his wife, Candace. They are the proud parents of two children, Mackenzie '96, and Michael '99.
