In 2001, I was recruited by coach Herb
Page at Kent State, Ohio. Herb has a soft spot for young
Canadian golfers so I had lots of home country company
while on the team. My four exhilarating years playing
for Kent were great preparation for professional golf.
For each upcoming tournament, I had to compete against
my teammates to be able to represent the team. I managed
to win a place on the team for every tournament.
We played against the best golfers in the NCAA league.
We had many highs and lows individually and as a team.
No matter what, we learned more about golf and improved
our games.
It was fun too. Herb treated us well with top notch equipment,
clothes and accommodation on our travels.
The list below describes the results I am most proud of
over the four years:
