SCOTT BARLOW | Director for Athletics“Academic success for every student-athlete is the ultimate goal of the athletic department at Lakeland Community College,” says athletic director Scott Barlow. “We believe that success in athletics can support success in the classroom and, ultimately, a successful life.”
“At Lakeland, our athletic programs are designed to enhance an athlete’s academic experience by helping our students develop the critical life skills of time management, self-discipline, the ability to work within a team environment, and recognition of the need for personal improvement.”
Barlow was named Lakeland’s athletic director during the summer of 2000. He brought with him an extensive educational and practical background in teaching, coaching, and administration.
Barlow currently serves as the commissioner of the OCCAC and is the NJCAA Region XII women’s division director. He is also regional representative for the NJCAA Division II volleyball and women’s basketball poll and a member of several NJCAA standing committees including softball, swimming, and diving. He is the national chair of the NJCAA’s Division II women’s basketball committee. Barlow was named OCCAC Athletic Director of the Year in 2002 and was selected as Co-Athletic Director of the Year in 2005.
He received a Bachelor of Science degree in physical education from the State University of New York College at Cortland, where he was a four year varsity baseball player. He has two master’s degrees; one in physical education and health from Radford University and another in administrative supervision from the State University of New York – Plattsburgh. A native of upstate New York, Barlow currently resides in Painesville Township with his wife, Jennifer, and three school age children who are active in a variety of sports.

BOBBY CALA | Head Coach
2014 LAKELAND GOLF MEDIA GUIDE
Bobby Cala began coaching at Lakeland Community College in the fall of 2004. Coach Cala’s teams have been solid performers in league competition, including a first place finish in 2006, when he was named the OCCAC Coach of the Year.
He is the teaching professional at Quail Hollow Resort, in Concord Township, a position he has held since 1991. Previously, he was the head professional at Pine Ridge Country Club in Wickliffe.
The golf team’s annual spring trip to South Carolina, which includes a stay at Hickory Knob Resort, is a seasonal highlight and always includes a side trip to the Augusta National Golf Course.
Zachary Underwood enters his first season as an assistant coach with the Lakeland men’s golf program. Underwood was a two-year student-athlete under head coach Bobby Cala, competing as a member of the team in 2010 and 2011. As a freshman Underwood carded a season low of 79 and shaved four strokes off that score as a sophomore with a career-best 75. He was also recognized as a S.T.A.R. student-athlete for his performance in the classroom.
ZACHARY UNDERWOOD | Assistant Coach
The Madison, Ohio native was a member of the golf team at Madison High School where he was named second team all-conference while competing in the Premier Athletic Conference (PAC).
