Personal Statement
I have been playing golf since the age of 8 and my parents were a significant part of my involvement with this sport. We would just go out and play for fun and the more I played the more I enjoyed golf. I knew I wanted to try and play high school golf and was very excited when I took my tour of Wilcox Tech when I was in 8th grade and I met the golf coach, Coach Wordarski. He was encouraging to talk to and I felt his enthusiasm for golf and knew I wanted to be a part of his golf team. Going in as a freshman I knew I would have to work and play better than ever to be one of the top 5 to play in the weekly golf tournaments. Making varsity golf as a freshman I learned that persistence and determination are great assets that I possess.
Being at a Technical High School I am studying the common courses that all high schools do but my focus is Electrical Engineering. My goal is to play golf in college and to go on to the PGA, but I also know that I have to have an education should my golf career not go as far. I have dreams of working with Sikorsky Aircraft or Pratt & Whitney. I believe that with 3 more years of high school golf and training that as an underclassman I would be a perfect asset for any college golf team. I have the self-discipline to maintain my education while also pursuing my dreams of playing college golf.
