Personal Statement

I was one of the top NorCal junior players last summer, including shooting 6 under 138 to win the NorCal Championship and qualify to play in the PGA Jr. Championship. Unfortunately as a late bloomer, my college choice of Cal Poly San Luis Obispo did not have an open golf roster spot for me. Therefore I am looking for a transfer opportunity to a college where I can play golf, and I would consider all divisions and also junior colleges. I have continued to play amateur tournament golf, where I have compiled a scoring average of 75 including many 6800+ yard layouts with strong collegiate fields, but I miss competing on a team and really want to go somewhere to school where I can take my game to the next level. I’m particularly interested in smaller colleges that offer a more personalized educational experience.
