July 2014
February 2014Personal Statement
I love the game of golf, but a college education is equally important. I have had dreams of playing collegiate golf since my freshmen year. My goals are to be the hardest working person both on the golf course and in the classroom. I want to be a contributor to my team and lead by example. My focused, determined, but quiet personality enhances my game and allows me to handle the emotional ups and downs that occur on the course. I believe I am capable of maintaining the highest standards both academically and athletically as I have done throughout my high school career keeping a 4.39 GPA and excelling on the golf course. I am open to all colleges, but my ultimate goal is to find the school that is the right fit for me academically and athletically.
