Dalton McGinnis '20 Recruiting Profile

My name is Dalton McGinnis.  I have lived in Deer, AR for my entire life.  I have also attended school at Deer the entire for my entire education.  I have achieved honor roll every year.  I am also a member of our FBLA team and have made it to state the last 2 years.  I began golfing at 5 years old, but started competing at age 12.  I live 1 hour away from any golf course, so playing rounds is difficult.   I have been a member of the First Tee of NWA for the last 5 years.  By attending the First Tee, I have learned patience and perseverance, along with course management skills.  I have won championships at the local, regional, and state levels.  In 2018, I won the Arkansas State 1A tournament by 11 shooting an even par 72 at Mountain Ranch Golf Club.   I also won the Junior PGA for Arkansas to earn a spot in the SouthCentraI championship in Oklahoma, earning a runner-up finish.  I have done this with minimal coaching and would love the opportunity to join a golf program where I could grow my game further.  I believe that I have what it takes to not only compete, but excel at the collegiate level.
