Jake Chesler '22 Recruiting Profile

I'm your next college student golfer that you want on your team.  One of my goals in college is to be the number one player on the team.  I will bring intensity, competitiveness, focus, and a good positive attitude.  Another goal of mine is to win a lot of tournaments, whether it's just a normal league tournament, or even a national championship.  Winning and succeeding are my main goals and having me on your team will help us both achieve our dreams.   

Since I was 8 years old, I have been enthralled with the game of golf.  After I won, or was in the top 3 of many golf tournaments as a young boy, I knew this was how I wanted to spend my free time.  A major highlight for me, at the age of 13, was when I got my first hole-in-one, in Colorado Springs, at the Pine Creek Golf course.  This was a moment that I saw myself achieving and succeeding in my favorite sport. 

I can assure you, that as a golfer on your team, you can count on me to be dedicated.  I am known to spend every waking hour thinking, dreaming, practicing, and playing golf.  I will commit to playing great golf, encouraging my fellow teammates to get better, and to be the hardest worker on the team.  As a child, every time I won a tournament, or placed well, it made me feel like I was a superstar athlete; by far, it is the best feeling in the world, and has ignited my love and passion for this sport way beyond my child/teenage years.

I am looking forward to taking my love of golf to the collegiate level. I bring a good competitive spirit to the team and am very hardworking.  Also, I like to have fun as well, not taking set backs too seriously.  I am also very dedicated to doing well in school, and have worked hard in my Honors classes to have a 3.5+.  I plan to continue to work hard on the course, and also in the classroom.

To date, my freshman high school golf season was also a big success for me. I did very well in all of the league events all throughout the season, and then towards the end of the year, I did well too.  At regionals, I had a decent score and one of my teammates tied me, and we both made it to state.  I tied for 7th at state and  ended up earning a top 10 medal, which was the first for my school. I realized this achievement was worth much more than myself, and I enjoyed every moment of representing my school.

Thank you for considering me to be a part of your team; I am more than excited to plan for my golf life outside of high school, and continue to excel as your next college student athlete.
