Hannah Basler '20 Recruiting Profile

My journey in golf began in December of 2016 when I decided for the first time to pick up a club and join my father in a round of golf.  Having a father who played college golf, I have never been a stranger to the game, nor the discipline and diligence it takes to both physically and mentally excel.  My first year in high school I played on the junior varsity squad for golf and realized that the same passion my father has for golf is inherited.  

Now in my junior year of high school and having made varsity golf for the past year and upcoming season, I am proud to say that my golf scores have increased dramatically over the past two years.

 Academically, I  have continually maintained a 3.17/4.0 GPA while playing varsity golf, dancing on the varsity poms squad, serving as a mentor to classmates, and being in multiple clubs. 

And finally, why consider me among the many candidates who might come your way?  While trying to showcase myself while holding true to humility that my parents have instilled in me, I believe I bring patience, diligence, and an open mind to be coached and mentored both on and off the course.  I see collegiate athletics as a privilege never to be taken advantage of- I view opportunities with hard work, passion, and most of all integrity.  I believe what sets golf aside from other athletic opportunities is the fact that the game is a gentlemen/ladies’ game that requires skill, grace, determination, and most of all humility.  Playing for a collegiate team, I hope to help my teammates meet the mission of the golf athletic program, while meeting the mission and vision of the college/university. Thank you for taking the opportunity to review my profile.  I welcome any opportunity to connect with you in the future.
