Emma Konopa '23 Recruiting Profile

Golf is the best thing that has happened to me. Sitting in 8th-grade reading class not knowing what golf even was. My reading teacher (HS Varsity golf coach) asked if I would be interested in swinging a club, from that day on I haven't stopped swinging. Golf is something I plan on doing for the rest of my life. This is why I would be honored to be able to continue my golf career throughout college. Mentally I understand golf is a mental game just as much as it is physical which helps me through all my rounds. My swing has come naturally to me with the help of my GOLFTEC pro-Kevin Sullivan. Kevin has taught me for 4 years now going on 5. Playing college golf has been Kevin and I's goal throughout these years. Balancing school and golf has come easier for me while becoming older. Over the years golf has become my safe place and the thing I'm most comfortable doing.  I strive to become a college golfer.  All my hard work and dedication to the sport I love thrives from that idea.
