Averly Pettibone '27 Recruiting Profile

I’m a rising Sophomore at Northside Christian Academy.  I joined the Varsity Golf team at NCA in the 6th Grade and was the youngest Varsity golfer at NCA to ever be invited and compete in the State SCISA Varsity Golf Tournament. I have been playing golf for 5 years.  This year was the first Invitational I have participated in beyond regular golf season at school, and my first co-Ed competition. I placed 36th in the state of South Carolina at the State SCISA Varsity Golf Tournament this year.  I play golf regularly with my Dad and visit the driving range at least three mornings each week before school, and three days a week when school is out for the summer. Additionally, I have a putting practice green and a chipping net at home. I have improved my distance with my 7 Iron to an average of 150 yards!  I currently have Strength & Conditioning training at school four days per week and a home gym where I continue cardio and weight training 3 days per week. I have selected to attend Honors classes my Sophomore year and currently have a 3.87 Cumulative GPA. I take great pride in being organized, prepared, and resourceful. I’m looking forward to improving my GPA next year and applying to join the National Honor Society. I am interested in playing golf while attending college.  I am still making decisions regarding my program of study in college. I prefer to attend a college in SC or within a few hours of my home.  I recently joined SCJGA and am looking forward to my first state Junior Golf Tournaments this Fall (2024).
