All About Me
  1. Golf Achievements: Qualified for high school golf regionals as a freshman, sophomore, and junior.  Scored 76 in the first round at the 2008 HGA Houston Jr. Cha;mpionship (Redstone Tournament Course) to get into the final pairing for the second round. 
  2. Other Achievements: Achievements I have made outside of golf would be making the National Honor Society and being an avid participant in my schools Leo club and Best buddies club. My junior year (08-09) I was a Board Member on the Leo Club (club that involves volunteering) and a Peer Buddy for the Best Buddies Club (club that works with Special Needs children). For my senior year I will be the secretary for the Leo Club and continue to participate in Best Buddies.
  3. Attributes that will make me a good college student-athlete golfer: Attributes that I have that I feel will make me a good college student-athlete golfer would be that I am able to manage my time wisely and keep my priorities in line. Even as a high school student I had to keep my grades up in order to play in my golf tournaments. When I missed days of school for tournaments I made sure to get my assignments and show up to tutorials the next day to find out and receive all the information I missed. I put my school and golf before my social activities because golf and school are both important to me.  I understand that they are my priorities and that my social life can come after.
  4. I will be a good college teammate because: I will be a good college teammate because I enjoy being a part of a team and working with others.  I learn from my golf friends now and can only expect to learn and grow from my fellow teammates.  I played club soccer (Div II and Div I) through the 8th grade so I have experience playing on competitive teams. 
  5. I am looking for a university and golf program that: I am looking for a university where I will get a good education.   The university's golf program golf would offer me the opportunity to compete for and represent the university at the highest level possible. 
  6. My college goals are: My college golf goals are to play golf for a college that I enjoy and contribute to the success of the college golf team.
  7. I am looking for a college golf coach that: I am looking for a college golf coach that is supportive in my desire to improve and play college golf.  I want a coach who will help me get better and point out areas in need of improvement.
  8. The strengths of my golf game are: I am a fairly accurate player with a neutral grip and a swing that is pretty simple.  I like hitting fairway metals and hybrids (#'s 4 & 5) so I don't put a lot of pressure on myself to hit it farther when I am playing.  My father says I can "take my swing out of town and not worry about getting parts for it".   
  9. The weaknesses of my golf game are:

    The weakenesses of my golf game are driving distance, bunker play, and lag putting.  I hope to improve my driving distance with better technique and possibly better fitting equipment.  For greenside bunkers, I need to remember my lessons and practice more.  Improving my putting technique plus more practice should help my lag putting. 

  10. I think my golf game will continue to improve because:

    My golf game should improve because I plan to continue working with my golf professional to improve my technique while trying to compete at a higher level.  At The Univ of Texas Golf Camp, the UT Golf Coach (ladies) told be to "become brilliant at the basics".

Personal Statement

Thank you for taking the time to review my resume. 

Although I started playing golf when I was 5 (earlier per my dad) and never really stopped working at it,   I also spent a good portion of my early years involved with club soccer and swim team.  After a broken wrist, broken toe, knee problems, and achilles problems (from soccer - not swim team), my dad said it was time to move over to golf full time.  This was probably a good idea because in August of 2007, I found out I had very low platelets.  It is called ITP.  For two years I have been seeing doctors at Texas Childrens Hospital (Hemotology) and MD Anderson.  My spleen was removed in late December of 2008.  Through the infusions and other treatments (with their side effects),  I have played high school and junior golf.  I stayed at Bellaire High School instead of being home schooled and  passed all my subjects while being active in school clubs. 

My freshman and sophomore years at Bellaire HS, I was the only girl on the golf team so I practiced with my younger sister and played in events as a medalist.  My younger sister came to Bellaire HS my junior year and that made 2 girls on the team - playing as medalists.   This year we hopefully will have enough players to field a full team and  I finally will get to compete on a golf team. 

Take a chance on me.  I will beat ITP and will continue to get better and better at golf. 

Stacy
