Dana Bedard is one of the most well rounded coaches on staff at Cypress College. Bedard is entering his 21^st season as head coach of the Cypress College men’s golf team, while also working as a full time professor and athletic academic counselor.

During his tenure at Cypress College, he has coached three individual State Champions (David Min, 2008 | Scott Sexton, 2009 | Dylan Hall, 2017) and one Southern California Regional Champion (Mike Rim, 2004). Coach Bedard has led the Chargers to the CCCAA Southern California Regional Championships each of the last three seasons dating back to 2017. In 2019, Cypress golf won the OEC championship, placed 3rd in the State Championship, and Coach Bedard earned OEC Coach of the Year.
