​2021 Annual Awards

Andy Andress
2021 ​Superintendent of the Year
received the award from President-elect, Brian Woolard.

Congratulations Andy!

Andy was nominated for this prestigious award because of his hard work and service to our chapter. He is a strong leader in our Association and is a major part of the success of our chapter.

The following comments were received with the nomination, "Andy is one of the most respected golf course superintendents in the state. He has tirelessly served as a board member and officer on both the Texas Gulf Coast SA and the Lone Star GCSA for many years. His tenure at Victoria CC for an unheard-of 30 years is a testament to his ability to maintain a golf course in immaculate condition year in and year out despite all the curveballs mother nature throws at him including hurricanes, floods, droughts, water shortages, etc. During those lean years when budget cuts come along and golf course staffs are reduced, many superintendents would start looking for greener pastures, but Andy never gives up and always finds a way to get things done. I have played VCC many times over the years and I have never seen his course in anything but excellent condition. I made a special effort to attend the annual TGCSA’s Scholarship fund raiser tournament held at Victoria CC recently and I’m really glad I did. Just seeing how much the staff and most importantly, the membership, loves and respects Andy was heart-warming. I don’t know how he does it."
