And then extending through the swing without really flipping my arms too much , which would be a tendency for that opposite end swing . Honestly , one of the biggest challenges for me throughout my high school process becoming a college athlete was really the transition to college athletics . It was really , you know , I was very fortunate to be blessed with the ability to play golf and to be able to play it at the highest level being Division I , but once I got here , it was , it was different .
People in the polls had to say about us last year and going out there , getting in the top 3 was something that I'll always remember . Balancing athletics and in school is one of the most important things that you can do . I think it's an important character builder .
So my recruitment process was Maybe a little bit different . I , I was in between , you know , a lot of different sports that I loved , you know , picking and choosing what I ultimately wanted to do in college . Obviously loved golf .
I didn't really email a bunch of coaches , asked to , you know , can I come to camps and stuff like that . So if it's golf , if it's baseball , football , track , whatever , be proactive , um , go to camps , camps are huge . Um , and just , you know , be willing to learn when coaches are talking , anything , you know , constructive criticism or praise , be willing to learn , be willing to listen , and when your time's called , be ready to go .
Yeah , like I said , freshman sophomore year wasn't the best . Junior senior year kind of took a little bit of a leap . And um and really just learning from the guys in the past , learning from the guys now allowing my , you know , my mind to open up to some different , different techniques and different thoughts in general has really ultimately kind of pushed me into where I am .
