Virginia Travers '18 Recruiting Profile

My collegiate goal is to become a pediatric surgeon.  It is my dream to save the lives of children and young adults so that they can live long and happy lives.  I would be a good candidate for your team because I am hard-working, I always give 100% in anything I do, and I make the best decisions possible with each shot on the course.  I love the challenge of playing a sport that I love, while at the same time, trying not to hate it!  I get to meet new people all the time which I love, because I can be a talker! I'm different because I started playing this sport my freshman year and was on the JV team regularly shooting 65-70 for nine.  Now as a sophomore I shoot mid to high 40s and sometimes low 50s and I was the 4th and 5th spot holder on the boys varsity team.  The rest of my teammates were boys and we're all seniors.  I was the only girl in all of the tournaments I played in, except for the sectionals tournament to go to state.  In stead of playing with the boys, I decided to play at the girls sectional and from last year to this year I dropped 29 strokes from last year's tournament to this year's.  I was also five strokes away from going to districts this year and the third best sophomore out of 24 other sophomores.  My other characteristics include passionate, social, open-minded, reliable, and kind.  Whether I am in school or on the course I try to give my all and enjoy the time left I have because I only have two years left of high school before I become and adult and my life begins.
