Personal Statement

I have a 4.0 GPA with all honors courses through my 11th grade year. This past HS golf season as a 16 year old I was voted MVP of my varsity golf team as well as 1st team All District where I finished 2 out of 60 golfers at the Northwest district tournament with a round of 74 to qualify for the Ohio State Division 1 State Championship at The Scarlet course at Ohio State University. I finished 17 out of 72 at the State Championship.

After I graduate from high school in 2019 I am committed to becoming an elite collegiate student athlete. I have been a team Captain for two straight years and Vice President of my class. I take pride in being a good leader and teammate. I am passionate about golf and competing at the highest level possible. I have big dreams about my golf career and I desire to play somewhere and for someone that will help me grow as a person and as a elite collegiate golfer. I am coachable and want to be coached. I promise to be dedicated in the classroom and on the golf course, and to be a good teammate.
