FHSU SPORTS INFORMATION DEPARTMENT

HAYS, Kan. – Fort Hays State announced the hiring of Seth Kincaid as Assistant Sports Information Director and Head Men’s Golf Coach. Kincaid joins the Tiger family after two years as a graduate assistant in sports information at Northwest Missouri State University.

Kincaid will assist in all aspects of the sports information office at Fort Hays State alongside 12th-year Sports Information Director Ryan Prickett. “I am very excited with the addition of Seth to strengthen our day-to-day operations in the sports information office,” Prickett said. “It is great to add someone who understands the daily workload of sports information directors at the NCAA Division II level and has been a part of the MIAA for two years already. With the ever-increasing workload, pace, and demands of the athletic media relations profession, the addition of Seth helps us address our current and future expectations.”

A native of Olathe, Kan., Kincaid got his start as a high school beat writer at The Jackson Sun in Jackson, Tenn., before spending two years as a graduate assistant in sports information at Northwest Missouri State University in Maryville, Mo. (2014-16). He was responsible for five sports at Northwest, including women’s soccer, cross country, track and field, women’s basketball and softball. In addition, Kincaid was the secondary contact for the 2015 NCAA Division II National Champion football team and the primary contact for the Bearcat men’s basketball team during their run to the 2016 NCAA Division II Sweet 16. He was also the PA announcer for women’s soccer and softball.

Kincaid takes over as head men’s golf coach at FHSU, succeeding Sean Dreiling who guided the program for two years. Dreiling also served as an assistant coach for the men’s basketball program for four years.

“With a need for continuity in our golf program and assistance in our sports information department, we feel Seth is capable of providing both,” FHSU Director of Athletics Curtis Hammeke said. “His passion for golf and his expertise in various areas of sports information make him a great fit for this position.”

Kincaid earned a bachelor’s degree in Mathematics from Union University in Jackson, Tenn., in 2012 before completing a master’s in Athletic Administration at Northwest Missouri State in 2016. He and his wife, Amber, recently celebrated the birth of their daughter, Ellison.
