Huarte Tabbed as Golf Assistant Coach – University of Miami Athletics

Huarte got his start in coaching at his alma mater, Barry University, where he served as an assistant coach for the men’s and women’s teams from 2016 to 2018. In his first year with the Buccaneers, Huarte helped the women’s program win the 2017 NCAA Division II National Championship.

On the men’s side, Huarte assisted a Buccaneers team who advanced to the NCAA Championship semifinals in 2017-18 and was a national quarterfinalist in 2016-17.

A four-year letterwinner at Barry from 2010-2014, Huarte carried his competitive spirit into the realm of coaching.

“I truly enjoy every aspect of being a coach. I love competing and enjoy the preparation required to compete at the highest level,” Huarte said. “I bring a lot of energy and enthusiasm into everything I do and I am passionate about making our players better.”

Huarte had a decorated collegiate career at Barry, helping the program to back-to-back DII National Championships in 2013 and 2014. The Miami native played 107 rounds in 37 tournaments in his career, carding a 75.02 stroke average and seven rounds in the 60s. Huarte earned All-America honorable mention status from the Golf Coaches Associate in 2012.

After graduation, Huarte spent two years as a touring professional, mostly on the West Florida Golf Tour. In 12 starts, he recorded four top-15 finishes. During that period, he also worked for golf giant Srixon/Cleveland, educating sales associates on the latest technology and promotions.

“I want to thank Lynn University for entrusting me to lead an incredible program over the last four years,” Huarte said. “The support I received from the entire university allowed me to successfully develop as a coach and a person. I am forever grateful to the players that came through the program for allowing me to play a small role in their journeys.”
