Jake Delaney '23 Recruiting Profile

I’ve been playing golf for 3 years. I’m enjoying the challenge and competition.  my first year I learned  course management, using the clubs I could consistently  hit I was able to lower my scores. The second year I put a lot of work in with my father on my short game. I worked on my putting technique, distance control and reading greens. I also worked on chipping.  my second year I lowered my score to 43 average. The third year I worked on swing speed training and ball striking. I was able to now hit my driver 275 yards  and with more solid ball striking I hit more greens. Now I’m at a 39 average.  I finished 2nd at Regionals. With a 76. Tied for 4th place at Sectionals with a 79. First  round at state IHSA tournament with a 79.  Second round 84 finishes 51st overall at state. I want to finish in the top 5 my senior year (2022) My practice schedule for this winter is to use video and a launch monitor. I’ll be working on precise distance control, and having a more consistent swing.    My goal for golf is to push my potential to its limits and increase my skill as much as I can to try and pursue a career in playing golf at the college level. I believe that what makes me stand out is my determination to succeed and work ethic.
