Prugh played collegiate golf at the University of Washington (2000–2004), where he was a member of three NCAA National Championship teams, competed in three USGA Men’s Amateurs, and earned All-Pac-10 honors in 2001. Following his college career, he went on to compete professionally, winning numerous titles including the 2008 Oregon Open, the Rosauers Open (2009, 2011, 2013, 2015), the 2011 Northwest Open, and the PNW PGA Section Championship (2016, 2019, 2020).

Prugh earned his bachelor’s degree in Economics from the University of Washington and has been a PGA of America member since 2010.

Away from the course, he enjoys time with his wife, Katie, and their two daughters, Charlotte (8) and Grace (4). His coaching philosophy is simple: help each player reach their potential.
