I wanted to update you all on some of the exciting things happening with the CU golf programs.
First of all our early signing class was released this past week. We are very excited to have Molly Mullins (Caledonia), Andrea Dwyer (Elk River), Adam Petterson (Lakeville), and Kyle Hagglund (Lindstrom) joining our CU Golf family next year! They all will be great additions to the program!
The CU Golf staff is keeping very busy during the winter months. I am staying busy continuing to recruit, oversee athlete workouts and fulfilling NCAA chair duties. I have the great opportunity to attend the National Golf Coaches Association Annual Convention next week in Las Vegas. There will be over 100 women's golf coaches from all divisions at this convention. Also, as the Chair of NCAA Women's DII Golf, I have the wonderful opportunity to facilitate the DII breakout sessions. I'm really looking forward to this convention. It's a great way to catch up with some friends and network with others. Coach Waryan is currently down in Arizona working with the Bird Golf Academy. He stays busy traveling between Phoeinx, Palm Springs and Las Vegas meeting with clients and giving lessons. He also helps me with recruiting and future planning. Coach Maize is staying busy traveling between MN and Sarasota, FL. She does many private clinics and private lessons during her time down there. She just recently returned from the 2010 World Golf Fitness Summit in Orlando, FL. This was put on by the Titleist Performance Institute.
With Coach Maize's help, we just finished putting the last few team members through the TPI testing. They all now have individual workout plans that they can do to enhance their golf games. It will be exciting to see how all the hard work pays off this spring!
Lastly, I would like to congratulate Senior golfer, and women's captain, Molly Noser for being accepted into the University of Iowa Dental School. After her graduation this spring from Concordia she will attend graduate school in Iowa City and sadly become a Hawkeye! :)
Congrats Molly!
That's all for now,
Coach Higgins
