Michael Papamechail '21 Recruiting Profile

Outside of the game of golf, my studies and grades are something I am very proud of.  Being a student-athlete is a challenge that I have learned to deal with throughout my high school experience. My school enforces its' students to prioritize school work before athletics which has helped me become a more responsible and mature athlete. With a "School first" mindset, this allows me to properly manage my time between school and golf to get the most I can out of every day. I grind golf as much as I can all year round but the majority of my practice takes place in the summer time.  With school work out of the way, this leaves me plenty of time to spend multiple hours on the putting, chipping and grass range at the practice facility I belong to. I also enjoy nature and being outside with my family and friends whenever I get the chance. Another activity that I enjoy on my free time is to perform art. I love to draw and paint as these are some of my talents that I enjoy to publicly express. I am willing to do anything to play college golf, no matter how much time and effort I have to put in to achieve this goal that I had set for myself.
