Golf

Golf is a sport of great detail, complexity, and mental strength. This year is my senior year on the golf team and it is going to be difficult. Our freshman class has really good scores and they are going to be difficult to beat consistently.

The first three years on the team were a struggle for me because of needing different swing changes and the difference of length of courses compared to when I was in high school. However, I think this year is when I can put it all together. My summer rounds were pretty good and I shot my lowest 18-hole round in my life. So far, we have had qualifying rounds, and I have struggled a little bit. My rounds are both better than I had last year, but there are still things I can get better at.

Throughtout this year, I hope to continually get better and hopefully beat my teammates and prove to myself that I can compete at a high level. Go Bears!

    Hi! I can really sign off on all that golf stuff. Golf is an extremely challenging sport, but at the same time an absolutely brilliant sport. I started playing golf myself 3 years ago and I am hooked on golf. Congratulations on the best 18-hole score and cheers for the season.

Internship

-
 With the ending of my sophomore year, I wanted to do an internship. For the Dicke College of Business, all students must have an internship before graduation. 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.

 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. My old swing was over the top and steep. This causes big chunks in the ground (divots) and can cause slices and hooks (ball goes way left/right). With my new swing, I am going through the ball and turning my hips more. When doing this, the ball goes straighter, as well as controlling the ball to fade or draw (controlled left/right). When the swing is fixed,

Ada In The Summer

 For the past two summers, I have lived in Ada during the summer since I have a house here. While Ada is a lot more fun during the school year with everyone, most of my friends have been here this summer as well. I have been really busy this summer with work, wedding planning, and keeping busy with friends.  Ada is actually kind of nice during the summer. It is really quiet and not as many events are going on, but there are plenty of townies still here to keep the town as rowdy as ever. My favorite part of the week is on the weekends when all of my friends and roommates come back and we hang out all day and have campfires.  This summer, I have already gone to two weddings. One of the weddings was for my fiance's friend, and the other was for a former golfer and one of my friends. Both weddings were fun, but Joe's wedding (my friend) was really nice to see him and many of my former and current teammates again. After the wedding, everyone came back to our house and we all hung ou
