Aspirations for Kenneth Okins in College Golf and Beyond
For the better part of my life I have remained dedicated to crafting my golf swing in support of my effort to eventually play competitive golf at the collegiate level. Likewise, I have achieved and maintained a very high academic standard, standing very near the top of my class academically while completing numerous advanced courses of study. I have always thrived in a team environment and truly desire the opportunity to become part of a competitive collegiate golf program where I can apply what I have been told is a natural tendency to lead by example and make the team truly stronger than the sum of its parts. As such, I feel that I am truly a good candidate to not only help my college team win tournaments but also to lead the charge when called to do so. In the end, I would like to be an integral part of a team that looks to compete at the highest level and potentially win national championships while offering me a class academic path.
