Joseph Wickman '20 Recruiting Profile

    Qualifying for the 4A Iowa State Golf Tournament my freshman year was the highlight of my golf career.  Not qualifying for the state tournament my sophomore year created a desire in me to compete and be a part of a four-year collegiate golf team.  Coming across a tournament on T.V. gave me the itch to try the sport in middle school.  I fell in love immediately!  I loved the sport of golf because no one in my family golfed.  This taught me to be self-driven and learn on my own.  My intense tenacity in life helped me to search and try all aspects of this game to get better.   I have learned to communicate and adapt to different players in different situations.  My curiosity and drive to be the best at what I am doing were found through playing golf.  I have developed a great deal of patience and dedication when playing and bettering my golf game.   During my remaining two years of high school golf, I plan to help and lead my team to become the best golf team we can be.  I plan to attend camps during the summer and play in many top amateur golf tournaments nationwide.  During the school year, I will continue to maintain my 4.0 G.P.A. and community silver cord hours.  I will continue to reach my maximum playing ability with the hope of playing college golf.
