Why Lehigh? “Besides falling in love with the campus and all the activities that are offered, I chose Lehigh because of its highly respected academic reputation. Not only is it ranked top in its academics, but Lehigh provided an excellent emerging golf program with outstanding facilities that I felt will assist me to the next level in my golf game.”
On Coach Shutte: “Coach Shutte is not only an outstanding coach, but is an approachable and understanding person as well. He goes out of his way to help the team and goes the extra mile to have us meet our fullest potentials not only with golf, but academically as well.”
On the student-athlete experience: “To me to be a student athlete at Lehigh University means to not only compete on a competitive athletic level, but on a competitive academic level as well. At Lehigh a student athlete is one who finds the correct balance between a full time athlete and a full time student. Student-athletes at Lehigh are those who work hard in achieving their goals.”
