Favorite memory to date of Grinnell College golf career:
There are too many to choose from, so I am going to share a few:
· Shooting my personal best at my first collegiate conference tournament with my dad watching and then getting to celebrate the team continuing its winning streak.
· Going to Nationals twice, just seeing the NCAA logo plastered everywhere and realizing we had made it and then making the cut both times!
· Getting to go to Florida with some of my best friends, playing early morning rounds next to the bay, then getting to get acai and going to the beach in the afternoon, and waking up the next morning at 5am to do it all again.
· Playing in the Historic Triangle Invitational with the “fantastic four” and getting to see some of my teammates play their best rounds, celebrating our 3rd place team finish with acai, sushi, and ice cream.
