“We’re excited for Drew to be part of our program,” said Heppler. “Drew was involved in every aspect of the New Mexico program and was successful in their recruiting efforts. He came highly recommended and is highly-regarded by many of the coaches on the West Coast.”
During his two years at New Mexico, McGee helped guide the Lobos to three tournament victories, two NCAA regional tournament appearances and a second-place finish in the Mountain West Conference Championship in 2016. Four Lobos won individual tournament titles, while five members of the team made the all-MWC team, and one was named Mountain West Player of the Year.

“I’m very excited to be with Coach Heppler and the Georgia Tech golf program,” said McGee. “I am also grateful for my time at New Mexico and the chance to work with Coach (Glen) Millican. I believe that my experience there has prepared me well for this tremendous opportunity. Coach Heppler has created a tradition of success both on the course and in the classroom, and I look forward to working with him and the players to build on that success. Georgia Tech is definitely a special place and I am thankful to be here.”
