Quote:
"I decided on Emory because I believe it will provide the most balanced environment for me, where I will grow as a person, student, and golfer. I am looking forward to arriving this fall, and I am eager to start classes and to practice. For prospective recruits, visits to the campus, meeting team members and our coach are very important. Above all, though, I recommend that you make sure you choose a school that can give you both a strong academic foundation as well as a chance to play at a high level of intercollegiate golf. Emory, in my mind, is one of but a few schools that can provide this."
