What has been your favorite golf course you have played at? 

My favorite golf course that we have tournaments at is Blackwolf Run; I have had a lot of great memories there growing up as well as in college. I also have worked there in the summer for the past couple of years, so I spend a lot of time out there. 

 

I chose Lakeland mainly because it is close to my house, and I can travel back and forth from school. I can maintain my job that I had before and hang out with my friends from high school, so my routine doesn’t differ much from high school which I like. I could maintain playing golf for a school which I liked, and I could spend a lot of time with my family. I also liked the small class sizes and family feel on campus. 

 

Traveling with the team has been a great experience as it is something that historically, Lakeland golf has never gotten the opportunity to go that far south, so I thought it was a great opportunity to play golf early in warm places. I think that seeing new places and playing new courses helped bond with the team but also increased our skills as we were placed in places we never had been in before in different conditions. Overall, a really good experience for our team that I believe will help the team and the program move forward. I thought I played okay, some good and some bad, always room for improvement, but helped the team which is my main focus.
