Diego Gonzalez '17 Recruiting Profile

November 2016Personal Statement
I stand firmly by my determination to excel in academics as well as on the golf course. Post secondary education has always been an expectation in my family since most of my family have college degrees from bachelors to doctorates. I feel an inevitable obligation to follow in their footsteps, and so now that I'm in this point of my senior year, I know playing college golf would open many doors for me and create many opportunities as well. In the future, I hope to work as a coach to share my love and knowledge of the game of golf or play golf at its highest level. In college, I hope to further my education and be willing to work with coaches and fellow teammates with any advice and help they'd have to offer to make myself better as a student, and an athlete as well.
