Coaching, Recruiting, and Motherhood: A New Perspective on College Golf with Head Women’s Golf Coach at Cal State Fullerton Coach Kathryn Hosch

In this episode of the Golf Mom Mindset Podcast, we sit down with Kathryn Hosch, Head Women’s Golf Coach at Cal State Fullerton and former Division I athlete, to break down what really matters in the college golf recruiting process.

With experience as both a player and coach within the same program, Kathryn shares a behind-the-scenes look at how coaches evaluate recruits—and why scores and swing videos are only part of the story. From character and attitude to family dynamics and culture fit, this conversation is a must-listen for junior golfers and parents navigating the path to playing at the next level.

In This Episode, We Cover:

• What college coaches are really looking for beyond scores
• When and how to communicate with coaches
• Tournament schedules and realistic expectations
• Practice habits that separate recruits
• The role of parents in the recruiting process
• How to identify the right college fit (and avoid the transfer portal)
• Subtle red flags coaches notice during visits
• How motherhood has shaped Kathryn’s coaching style and leadership
