Mark Sutton Strength and Conditioning Coach

Mark Sutton rejoined the Vanderbilt staff in June, 2001, and is responsible for the strength and conditioning program for the women’s golf team. Sutton served as an intern in the athletics department in the Spring of 1999 before taking a position at the Delta Fitness Club in Nashville.

“The game of golf has drastically changed,” Sutton says. “Todays elite female golfers are strong, powerful athletes. The single most important piece of equipment the Vanderbilt golfer posesses is their body. For this reason, the Commodore golf team undergoes a thorough strength and conditioning program designed to fully prepare them for success at the collegiate level and hopefully also in the future at the professional level.”

Sutton earned his Master of Science degree in Exercise Science in May, graduating with honors from Middle Tennessee State University.
He is certified by the Collegiate Strength Coaches Assosciaion and the National Strength and Conditioning Association and is also a member of both organizations.
