Mazin Rukieh '25 Recruiting Profile

Hello,

I am currently a junior at Swanton High School (NW Ohio) in Swanton, Ohio. I have always been a multi-sport athlete partaking in wrestling, soccer, and golf. Each sport requires a high level of discipline and dedication.  Through the years I have enjoyed all of these sports but have found an unmatched love for the sport of golf.

I have been golfing my whole life, but my 8th grade year is when I developed an uncontrolled desire to compete in the sport. Golf has a different level of challenge when compared to other sports. In the game of golf, it is necessary to be both physically and mentally strong. My greatest strength is maintaining a high level of composure to endure the ups and downs associated with golf which I have demonstrated in many of my matches/tournaments. I have always been a student-athlete that gives 110% on the course as well as in the classroom. I am proud of my academic achievements leaving me among the top 5 ranked students in my class of 2025 at Swanton High School.

Golf is my way of life! When I am not in class, I am always looking to better myself on the course. Living in Ohio makes it tough to play golf year-round, but that has never stopped me. I have always improvised and overcome my obstacles to achieve future success in the game. Whether it is golfing in the cold, rainy weather or finding time to hit the indoor simulators.

My ultimate goal is to earn a degree in engineering, golf at the collegiate level and eventually become a coach myself. I have been blessed with many great coaches in my life and would love to pass along my knowledge of the game to athletes of generations to come. I look forward to an opportunity to refine my craft and compete at the collegiate level. Please consider this as my letter of intent to be coachable, dependable and committed to compete at the highest level! 

Kind regards,

Mazin Rukieh
