Personal Statement

Dear Coaches, my name is Owen Walsh and I am a golfer originally from Ottawa, Canada.

I have just completed my freshmen year at Eastern Wyoming Junior College (EWC) on a full golf scholarship. This past season, the EWC golf team completed it's most successful year in team history placing first in all 8 regional tournaments, capturing the Div. 1 NJCAA Regional title and placing 12th at the National Tournament held in Texas.

My tournament scoring average this past season was 74.2. Some key golf highlights include:

- 1st place finish in my first College event in September 2020 with a 71

- 3rd place finish in my third tournament at Northeastern College event with a 72

- 4th place finish in the Central Wyoming JC home event with scores of 75 and 73

- 3rd place finish in Alexander Tunis Quebec qualifier with a score of 74 in August 2020

- Ist place winner in City and District Regional Championships with a score of 72 in July 2020

- 1st place finish and City High School Champion with a score of 73 in May 2018

-All District First Team

In addition, this past school year my GPA was 4.0.

Over the last several years, I have participated in over 60 tournaments at various levels to continue to evolve my golf game.

My goal is to obtain a golf scholarship for Fall 2022, after I have completed Junior College at EWC in Spring 2022.

I have enjoyed much success in golf at the city, regional and provincial levels. I had the pleasure of being part of the Rideau View Junior Golf Academy with PGA coach of the year Matt Robinson as my coach, and my work ethic has brought me lots of success. I have participated in a number of team sports. I am a very coachable player dedicated to improving my golf game, maintaining my fitness, and supporting my teammates.

My focus in my sophomore year at EWC will be to continue to become a better collegiate golfer through the experience of tournaments and head-to-head competition against other schools with the goal of competing at nationals.

I hope the information presented helps you further understand me more as a golfer and a person and I look forward to being in contact!

2021 eastern wyoming college (Junior College )
I had been apart of a team that set many records and had been the best team in EWC golf history. Our team had been the first team to win all 8 regional tournaments we played in. We had set scoring records at our home course (-9 under) and another one of our opponents home courses (-3 under). Including these accomplishment, the team had put up our best national ranking finishing at 12th in the nation. This team is full of talent and I understand what it takes to be apart of a winning program.
2018 Rideau View Golf and Country Club Junior Academy (Elite )
From 2015-2019 I was a member of the Rideau View Golf and Country Club Junior Academy headed by Matt Robinson, PGA Coach of the year in 2018. We often represented the Academy on local and regional golf tournaments. These results are available on this web-site.
