Joshua Kuykendall '21 Recruiting Profile

One question I always get from my peers or coaches is where do I get my work ethic to be the best I can possibly be. My answer is because of my upbringing.  As a kid I was always the short and nerdy kid that's dad was a coach which meant everyone thought I had an advantage over them. But what they don't know is the hard work and effort it took to be able to play the sports I wanted or have the good grades to be able to say I got all A's.  My dad helped instill that attitude in me and continue to work hard and be the best I could be. I didn't actually start playing golf until my freshman year of high school as I never went to a school with golf and had no interest in it until that year. I played in my first tournament ever and decided that day this is what I want to do. I started practicing and practicing and continued to practice until i noticed my progress with being able to beat my friends or peers who i couldn't have before. Noticing this progress over the years has made me into a young man looking for an amazing opportunity to play at the collegiate level and continue to grow in the game and as a man in society.
