I was the runner up for player of the year in the NJPGA points standings in 2012.  I have twice been a member of the NJPGA John Pritsch Memorial Cup team for New Jersey.  I was also named to the all county, and all conference, and all group teams as a freshman and a sophomore.  I was named freshman of the year by the Daily Record, and I placed 2nd in my Section at the Tournament of Champions in New Jersey.  My handicap is currently +2.4.  As a sophomore I won the County, Sectional, and Conference HS Tournaments, shooting 66 to break the State Sectional Record at Darlington GC. My low 36 hole tournament score is 138 (6-under par).  As a sophomore I was slected as the Daily Record Boys Golfer of the Year.  Over this past summer I also qualified for the Met Junior.

I also run track and Cross Country.  I won the freshamn and sophomore Mile in indoor track and was selected to the all county team.  My Cross Country Team is ranked 8th in the state, and I was a contributing member of the team making the All conference team as well.  I was the ninth fastest freshman in the New Jersey Meet of Champions and finished 7th overall in the 1600m at the New Jersey State Sectional.

I am extremely determined and I have the focus and motivation it takes to play and practice at a high level.  I have plenty of room to improve, and I am willing and eager to listen to my coach and help my team in whatever way possible.  My swing is very simple, and I strive for perfection.  I will never settle for "good".  

I understand that team comes before the individual.  I only give positive feedback and I will always strive to support and encourage my teammates

I am looking for a golf program that will help me to become a better player by through encouragemtn and challenging opportunities.  I want a school with a great practice facility and a coach that is excited about his program.  I also need a great acedmic support program, in my hopes to pursue a degree in engineering.

I hope to be a contributing memeber to a very competitive program which plays top tier golf programs.  I want my golf game to improve alongside my acedmic career in engineering.  I would love to continue playing golf after college, or at least make it part of my career somehow.  

I am looking for a college golf coach that sees my true potential.  Unlike a golfer from the South, my golf season is almost limited to 9 months of the year.  I spend 3 months training and practicing indoors, which is not the same as playing the course.  Playing at a high level in college would surely maximize my potential, and I hope my coach will encourage me throughout my college career.

I would consider my strengths to be accuracy and consitency.  While I may not shoot under par everytime, you will rarely see me shoot above the mid 70's.  I recover quickly from a bad hole, and my mental game is second to none.  I play well under pressure, and my short game can always save me when I need it to.

I would not consider any one part of my game weaker than the others.  I spend equally great amounts of time practicing every aspect of my game.  I recognize the real importance of a solid short game, but I have always considered myself a good iron player.  If my game has a weakness, it may be my distance, as I drive the ball around 270 yards.  However I can make up for this with accurate long iron play, and good touch around the green!

I predict that my golf game will improve for several reasons.  I have yet to finish growing, and I hope that growth will help my distance.  I know that I can improve upon all aspects of my game, by fine tuning my swing and short game.  Working on consisitency and being a perfectionist will get me to the next level.  My mental game also sets me apart from my competitors.  I have worked hard on handling high-pressure situations.  I have no doubt in my mind that with more practice and hard work, my golf game will improve.
