Life and Sports

 Golf is a sport that is probably one of the most difficult to master. As someone who is on the golf team here at ONU, it has been something that I have struggled with. I progressed every season in high school, starting at a 100 average my freshman year to having an average of 84 my senior year. I have had averages of 97, 92, and 92 in three seasons in college.  This past spring season was the hardest season I have ever had in golf. Most of the tournaments I played in were cold, raining, and really windy. If you didn't know, these are the last things you want for a round of golf.  This summer, I have been working on a new swing.

However, I want to get 2 internships in (end of sophomore and junior years) so I can have more experience in different fields. This past summer, I had an internship at the Ohio High School Athletic Association (OHSAA) in Columbus. While there, I worked in the communications office with their Director of Communications, as well as two other interns from Ohio State and Otterbein. During my time at OHSAA, I worked a lot on their website. The main things I did were posting job openings for OHSAA sanctioned schools, open dates for different teams, posting articles, as well as creating archive pages once the spring sports season was over. I was able to do the Division II state track meet at Pickerington North High School. While there, I gave teams their packets and tickets to enter, as well as handed out media and board member passes.
