December 2014Personal Statement
I have been playing golf competitively since I was 10 years old. After high school, I would like to go to college and possibly major as an architect or an engineer. I would also like to play college golf at this time and have a very successful career.

Events
- Camp/Event
- Windsor High School League Match
- 8/14/15 to 8/14/15
- This was the first high school tournament of the season. Going into the tournament, my game was not where I wanted it to be and it showed on the front nine where I shot 39. However, I turned it around on the back nine with an eagle and three birdies to shoot 33 which gave me an even par 72 for the tournament. This was good enough for a solo second finish and was a good start to the season.
- Camp/Event
- Firecracker 200
- 7/01/15 to 7/03/15
- This was my first 3 day tournament that I have ever played in. The first 2 rounds were at Pelican Lakes where I shot 79-76. I hit the ball very well the first round, but putted very poorly. On the second day, I hit the ball poorly but putted well. The final round was at Highland Meadows where I shot 75. Both aspects of my game were a little shaky at times, but I managed to put together my best round of the tournament. I was pretty happy with 3 rounds of 79-76-75. It was a solid tournament.
- Camp/Event
- Optimist District Qualifier
- 6/18/15 to 6/18/15
- This was the second stage of the Optimist Qualifier and the top 6 finishers in the tournament would qualify for the Optimist tournament in Florida. I came in 8th place so I just missed out on qualifying. I shot 74 thanks to a very good short game on the back nine.
- Camp/Event
- Championship at FoxHills
- 6/07/15 to 6/08/15
- I shot 83 the first day which isn't that great. However, I figured some stuff out on the range before the second round and managed to shoot 76. I feel like it was a good bounce back after a shaky first round.
- Camp/Event
- Loveland Breakfast Optimist Qualifier
- 6/01/15 to 6/01/15
- This was my first tournament of the year. I managed to shoot 75 which won the tournament and was good enough to qualify for Districts on June 18th! My game was a little off, but I managed to keep it together and post a solid round.
- Camp/Event
- CHSAA 4A 2014 State Championship
- 9/29/14 to 9/30/14
- I came in 19th at State this year which I am pretty proud of. I shot 74 the first day and 83 the second. The 83 really highlighted what I need to improve on, such as playing in a lot of wind and also develop a really solid short game. Overall however, I was quite happy with how I played and can't wait to get back out there and get ready for my senior year!
- Camp/Event
- 4A Northern Regional Tournament
- 9/16/14 to 9/16/14
- I won Regionals! I played very solid at Regionals like you want. I made 2 birdies and 2 bogeys on the front to shoot even par 36. Then i bogeyed 10 but had 6 straight pars and then a birdie on 17. I parred 18 to shot an Even Par 72. This was tied for first with one other kid so we went and had a sudden death playoff. I hit my drive 309 down the center of the fairway and had 224 in for my second shot. I hit a solid 4 iron to 15 feet from the pin, on the fringe. I two putted for birdie and won! I made birdie, he made bogey. http://www.reporterherald.com/sports/preps/ci_26547965/berthouds-shawn-solem-is-one-cool-cat http://www.tout.com/u/RHpreps
- Camp/Event
- Holy Family High School League Match
- 9/09/14 to 9/09/14
- I got my game back on track a little bit shooting 78. I went out in 41 trying to get used to some swing changes I was trying to make, but rebounded well on the back shooting 37. I feel like my game is in a good place heading to Regionals next week.
- Camp/Event
- Walt Clark Invitational (Non League Match)
- 9/03/14 to 9/03/14
- Well I shot 86 which isn't good at all. Pretty much all of the aspects of my game were off but we will get it back on track the next tournament.
- Camp/Event
- Fredrick High School League Match
- 8/25/14 to 8/25/14
- Shot 77, which was a little higher than I was averaging, but am still satisfied. I made a triple bogey on my 17th hole but felt like it was the right play so I have no regrets.
- Camp/Event
- Roosevelt High School League Match
- 8/21/14 to 8/21/14

- 8/18/14 to 8/18/14
