1. What does it mean to you being a senior after all the hard work you have put in over the past four years and having a shot of going out on top of the MAC?

Ever since I have been here we have always given our best effort to win the conference title and came up a little short. This year's team has chemistry and with our teamwork I believe we can achieve that goal.

2. How did you start playing golf?

My dad taught me how to play at age four and two years later I started playing in tournaments.

3. During the end of your sophomore year you injured your back. How did you hurt it and was it golf-related?

I did hurt it playing golf and I have gone to several doctors and none of them knows exactly what the problem is. It is extremely frustrating for me that the doctors can't find the problem.

4. In the beginning of your junior year you finished second in one event and won another and then you were redshirted. Was that tough to deal with especially since you were off to a hot start?

Absolutely. That was tough to go through knowing you can't help your team, especially since I got out to a hot start. Even though that was tough to deal with I believe it made me a better player and I appreciate the game so much more.

5. Is your injury gone now and if not how are you dealing with it?

I take medication and go to a local physical therapist and also work with the school doctors and trainers. Also my Christian faith has helped me tremendously and I know everything will work out for the best.
