Brian Whitson '16 Recruiting Profile

I have been playing golf with my dad since I was able to walk and hold a golf club.  Through the years, I have also played several other sports.  I have been involved with basketball, baseball, and football.  Although I enjoy each of these sports, I seem to have excelled in golf the most.  I am very interested in playing golf at the next level.

I find the game of golf both mentally and physically challenging.  And I love a good challenge! Golf challenges me on many different levels.  It is me against the course, against my opponent, and it is me trying to make decisions and shave one or two more strokes off my game to help my team to a victory.  I strive to always play my best game and will give 110% of my ablities in both practice and matches.  Sportsmanship is also a big part of the game for me as well.  I feel it is always important to put your best foot forward and lead by example. 

Golf for me is a way of life!   When I am not in class, I live to be on the golf course.  I play golf year round, whether the temperatures are in the 100's or the 40's.  I would like to use my golf talents to help me further my education.   My ulitmate goal is to earn a degree in Education and eventually become a coach myself.  I have been blessed with several great coaches in my life and I would like to some day help others to reach their fullest potential in the sport of their choice.
