Lipscomb College Golf Case Study

Decent Essays
I am writing to you because of my interest in playing collegiate golf and continuing my education at a Christian university. I have been raised in a Christian family and have a personal relationship with Christ. Lipscomb caught my attention because it is a faith based university with a competitive Division I golf team. I have read about your team and followed your success at regionals and the national championship the past 2 years. I have also read about your new Frost Short Game Facility and it looks like a great addition to the program. I believe that I have the ability and work ethic to play for a Division I golf program like Lipscomb. This coming weekend (Nov. 18 & 19) I am playing at Vanderbilt Legends in a Golfweek Junior Tour event.

    From an objective point of view, one would say that the Tim Horton’s Timbits Minor Sports Program is a very generous and beneficial program based purely on its statistics. My subjective point of view does not differ from this one bit. I think that Time Horton’s charitable actions have been so helpful to the youth of Canada. I like the fact that the program offers various sports in order to cater to the kids’ desires. The size of the program I find is an unbelievable number.…

    Yes, the 27-year-old right hander finally looks like the pitcher everyone envisioned when he was a highly touted prospect six years ago. But the dominance he's displayed since mid-2015 doesn't — and shouldn't — erase the other five years of his injury-riddled career, which makes the Nats' extension a puzzling gamble that seems based on wishful thinking and a way-too-small sample size. Anything but a reliable rotation presence during his six-year career, Strasburg already has had five separate DL stints, missing time for ailments including shoulder stiffness, neck tightness, muscle strains and, of course, a torn UCL in 2010 that required Tommy John surgery. Not to mention the few times he's left games with non-DL concerns such as heat exhaustion and shoulder irritation.…

    The University of Southern California football program is in shambles; right now trying to pick up the pieces after having to fire coach Steve Sarkisian who has been battling alcohol abuse problems. It's something that had to be done because it's been reported he was drunk on the sidelines during games and at school gatherings so I don't blame them for this at all. However, I do question athletic director Pat Haden and how he's running the football program at this time because over the past few years since Pete Carroll left for the Seahawks it's been a revolving door for USC at the coaching position. It takes time to rebuild college programs and I don't think Haden has given the coaches in recent times a chance to implement…
