Toni Meglen

Toni Meglen enters her second season as the associate head coach for the Cleveland State Golf programs. 

In her first season, she worked with both programs in leading the teams to top-four finishes in the season-ending Horizon League Championship tournament. Individually, DeSanto mentored Sabrina Coffman in helping her to a Horizon League Individual championship, the first individual title in the history of the women's golf program. 

Meglen comes to Cleveland State with over 15 years of experience in coaching and teaching the game of golf. She has served as a Golf Professional as well as coaching at the high school level. 

"I am extremely excited to have Toni as part of our program," said Weir. "Her experience and ability to connect with and develop student-athletes both on and off the course will be critical to our success moving forward. I'm very happy to welcome her to the Viking family." 

Meglen has served as a Golf Professional at Quail Hollow Country Club in Concord, OH since 2007. In that role, she managed and coordinated a three-level junior golf program, mentoring and providing instruction to over 100 youth ages five to 14. She also established lasting relationships with members and staff, as well as coordinating over 30 golf tournaments for the club each season. 

Meglen also served as the Varsity Boys Golf Coach at Notre-Dame Cathedral Latin High School in Chardon, OH. She has been the coach of the program since 2012, and in that time has made nine appearances in the Division II state tournament. Her teams finished runner-up three times, and she was named Coach of the Year in the North Coast League in 2017. DeSanto has coached four players who received the Cleveland.com Player of the Year award. 

In her role at Cleveland State, DeSanto will serve as the recruiting coordinator for the program. She will assist in all day-to-day functions as well as working hands on with the student-athletes during practices and competition.
