2021 PIAA State C...Personal Statement
You can say that golf has been in my blood since I was born. I have been playing since the age of 3, and my love for the game has only grown throughout the years. While I have been golfing my entire life, it has become my passion in recent years and this year (2022) will be the first full year solely concentrated on my improvement in golf. The reason for this is my extreme desire to secure a roster spot at a highly competitive University or College and help lead this team to victory. As a former multi sport athlete (football, basketball, golf) I have gained invaluable experience leading a team. The responsibility and privilege of being a "Captain" was presented to me on my football, basketball, and now golf teams. I do not take for granted the trust my coaches have in me, and fully embrace the opportunity to learn through new responsibilities.
The effort required to succeed on the course has also paid off for me in the classroom. I am carrying a 4.0 GPA while taking Honors level and AP classes. I have recently been inducted into the National Honors Society, Rho Kappa National Honors Society, and the Future Business Leaders of America. My parents have raised me to understand that it is so important to do my very best no matter what the challenge, and that I can achieve any goal with a good attitude and work ethic. Currently I am dual enrolled at my local community college to allow me to learn how to balance a very busy golf schedule with some very advanced academics. This will allow me to be ready come the Fall of 2024.
Every action taken at this stage in my journey revolves around my preparation for my time with YOU. Everyday I am working to get better on the golf course, in the gym, and in the classroom.
I would welcome any opportunity to speak with you about your golf program - text or call ANYTIME - 717-855-6110.

- PA STATE JUNIOR AMATEUR
- 6/26/23 to 6/27/23
- 54 hole tournament , finished T4 out of 120 players. Finished with a total of 212 (-1) for the tournament. The putter let me down on Mondays first round - (4) 3 putts and I couldn’t make a birdie putt within 10 feet. Hit 15/18 greens. The 2nd round I only hit 9 greens but was able to capitalise on my opportunities shooting 69 (-2). Round 3 I started -4 through the first 7 holes and then a 2 hour weather delay hit. I came out a bit out of sync and lost some momentum coming down the stretch , however, was able to get up and down quite a bit to save a respectable 70 (-1). Was pleased with my resilience.

- Pennsylvania Junior Boys Championship - Pennsylvania Golf Association
- 6/27/22 to 6/28/22
- Came into the tournament with a less than desirable confidence due to inconsistent ball striking. I fought hard on day 1 shooting a 74 even though my wedge game was lacking. Day two I was grinding my way at +2 through 10 holes and just ran into trouble every hole on the way in. 1 shot each hole took me out of birdie or par contention. A very disappointing 80 left we with a 154 2 day total. Good enough for 60th place out of 152, but not the result I was looking for. Was very blessed to have the experience and will take what I learned to my next event.
