Max Palmer '24 Recruiting Profile

2022 SpotlightPersonal Statement
I just completed my senior year at Bottineau High School (ND). I have competed on our varsity golf team since I was a 7th grader. Over my five seasons on varsity golf, I have won 24 tournaments, helped lead my team to 5 straight state tournament appearances, and was named to the 2022, 2023, and 2024 All-State Team. I was the 2024 State B Individual Champion and was also named the State B Senior Athlete of the Year. I have been named to the All-Region Team each of my five years as well, while being Regional Medalist my freshman, junior and senior year. In the summer I compete at a number of tournaments primarily sponsored by our ND Junior Golf Association as well as tournaments through ND Golf Association. In addition to playing in golf tournaments, I volunteer to work in our local Junior Golf Program assisting golfers in grades K-6. I work on the grounds crew at my local course.
In addition to golf, I was a letter winner on our varsity basketball team my sophomore and junior year.
