new from NY

Hey, I'm Joe, I play college golf here in NY (D2). I play as much as possible and freeze at the range alot during the Winter. I'm 22 from long island, I play mostly public golf aka Bethpage and the 6 hour rounds, but I get some benefits playing with the team.

I play at Adelphi University in NY, we are ranked 2nd in the northeast region for D2, I'm ok I suppose, I have played hideous this season averaging 79, im ranked 50th in the region, i was getting over an injury to my elbow but that isn't an excuse. my best finish ever was 2nd in 06 shot 72-73. I played junior college golf at Nassau CC, I played in 2 juco national championships (d3). My low round in a tournament is 68 which was at NCC in 05.
Adelphi is D2 but we play in some d1 tourneys, We go down to florida in march and play in st john's tourney, with schools such as FAU, Bethune-Cookman, Stetson, UConn, Creighton, U of Evansville, Johnson and Wales. We also are playing in Barton College's tourney in march which is a top 40 d2 school.

There is 2 more scholarship spots available for next fall. I'll be graduating in May along with 2 more guys. Coach has already locked up 2 guys for next fall. Send him an email you can find it at Aupanthers.com, with some of your tournament finishes and scoring averages and he'll get back to you. If you weren't joking haha

Didn't post it.

I've talking with another school trying to get a bunch of stuff in order to get there in the spring, but tbh i'm trying to look at a bunch of schools again to get some options in case.

Really sucks... But at least I got my first year courses outta the way without losing a year of eligibility....

I will say welcome, since everyone else seems to worried about Piper's prediament... hah, jk. Piper, that sucks, was that the only offer you had to begin with? I am a junior in HS, and have some scholarship offers already, not from any big schools, but i am still talking to big ten schools, pac 10, etc. they all seem interested but no offers yet. Is there that big of a difference between quality of play lower level d1 and upper?

oh hell yea there is a difference, 10 fold. Some of the D1 schools up here suck besides St Johns, URI, UConn. Comparing some lower level d1s to pac 10 and big ten schools is crazy. One school around here is Fordham they are prob one of the worst in D1, they are in the same conference as Charlotte which was ranked #1 by Golfstat. On the same course same conditions same everything Fordham shot 935 for 3 days Charlotte shot 824 you do the math.

It wasnt my only option, but its tough cuz my jr tourney records suck, from between playing through a back injury, getting used to tourneys and playing against myself I just never did very well in tourneys up until last year, and my last years scores sucked until the last couple (every single tourney last year had one nine under par, and the other at least 43 or worst (got as high as 53)).

So exposure between being Canadian from the best zone in my province, and my head being in my way wasnt very good. But now i'm a solid scratch player. I took this school because what they TOLD ME BEFORE HAND sounded extremely promising and had a great chance to expose my game without committing to a 4yr school that may have sucked. (example of my zone, I played agaisnt a kid who played on the euro tour a couple times, a kid who qualified for last year's US Open, a kid who broke the PGA Tour scoring record at Northview GC in a tourney two years ago)

Now i'm kinda up shit creek without a paddle though...
