One of the best memories was teeing it up and competing in the US Amateur this past summer. Hearing my name get called on the first tee was pretty special.
Â
Why did you choose Louisville?
 I choose Louisville for multiple reasons. First being, I grew up a huge Louisville fan and wanted to play basketball for Coach Pitino. After I realized that was not going to happen I turned my attention to golf and worked extremely hard to make it happen in golf. Louisville was the school I was locked in on going my whole life.
Â
How do you know coming to Louisville was the right decision for you?Â
I knew coming to Louisville was the correct decision for me due to it being the best Athletic College town in the country. The facilities, coaches, and support staff are unbelievably good and it was a easy choice because I could see myself growing as a golfer as well as a person.
Â
What is one thing our program has taught you?
Be the best you can be everyday
Â
What is your favorite thing about our team/program?Â
How every person on our team has grown over their time here. It is amazing to see how much better we all have gotten not only as golfers but as people as well. I think each year we have gotten closer as a team as well.
Â
What is the best part about being a student-athlete at Louisville?
This is simple. Being able to wear the Cardinal Bird everyday on your chest. That's pretty special.
Â
What do you miss most about being on campus?
Competing and being with the guys. We had a really special group this year and by far was the closest group of my 4 years here at Louisville. When we would go play everyone wanted to beat everyone and it made an unbelievable atmosphere.
Â
What are you doing with yourself during your free time?Â
Playing golf with my brother, working out, and catching up on some shows
Â
What's one thing you wish you had with you during this time?
My team and being able to play games and golf with them.

How are you continuing to stay in shape during this time?
Continuing to workout. Running, doing some circuits, and
Â
How have you and your teammates been keeping in contact?
Our Group message. Just sending funny stuff to each other and continuing to push each other.
