Will Abdi returned to his alma mater in the fall of 2024 as an assistant coach within the Roanoke College men's and women's golf programs.
Abdi graduated in the spring of 2024 with a degree in Sports Marketing and returns to help lead the program that he was an integral part of during his four years at RC. The Halifax (Va.) native was a four-year letter-man and three-time captain. He posted several top-five finishes for the Maroons. In 2021, Abdi finished third at the Virginia State Golf Association (VSGA) Intercollegiate just two strokes out of the medalist position. At the Stevenson Fall Invitational, he paced the Maroons at three-over par to once again claim a top three spot.
Off the course, Abdi succeeded in the classroom and made a huge impact as a leader within the program. He was responsible for assisting in the recruitment of student-athletes, assisted with practices, travel, and had a large role in the mentoring of younger players.
Abdi volunteered at the First Tee of the Roanoke Valley. In the summer of 2023, he was an intern at First Tee of Greater Richmond and returned one summer later to serve as the lead intern with the organization.
