June 2020 Personal Statement
I have loved the game of golf since I first started playing as a kid. I have loved playing on my high school team the last three years and in the UJGA. In the last 6 months I've started shooting consistent under-par rounds and shot a personal best (64) at old mill golf course last month. I am a near straight-A student and care about my academics as much as I do about my sport and am working to get an academic scholarship in addition to an athletic scholarship. I am a multi-sport athlete and have enjoyed running track as well as swimming for the last 6 years. I have made the state teams for both swimming and golf the last 2 years. I am an eagle scout, co-own a lawn mowing business, and have been playing the piano since I was 7 and participate in multiple other extracurricular activities. I am a very social person and consider myself easy to be around so when it comes to an athletic standpoint I'm definitely a team player that tries to help my team be upbeat and high reaching especially when I'm a captain. I consider myself a well rounded person but my love for golf trumps my other activities and interest. I hope to be able to achieve my dream of playing college golf!
