Shauna Estes, 29, was promoted to Arkansas' women's golf coach after serving as an assistant for five seasons.

Arkansas women's Athletic Director Bev Lewis hired Estes to replace Kelley Hester, who left the UA to become the coach at Georgia, her alma mater.

"All I kept hearing when I talked to anybody was, 'Why would you look any place else?'" Lewis said in reference to Estes, who assumed head coaching duties for the majority of the spring season while Hester was on maternity leave.
