Why I chose Georgia Southern: Georgia Southern exceeded all of my wants as a college golfer and student.

I know that with Coach Kuhfeld and the wonderful golf facility that goal can be met. I also enjoyed the small town environment with a big college feel. I am very excited for these next four years and the opportunity to be a part of the first women's golf team at Georgia Southern.
