The duo comes from the No. 1 ranked Junior College golf program in the country and the school has won seven tournaments to date. “Both Baxter and John Michael will immediately bring a winning attitude” said Martin. “They are favorites to win the national championship again this year. Both players will bring a great work ethic and a desire to play at the next level.”
O’Kelly will make the journey to Cincinnati from Georgia and has amassed a great juniors record. “I give Coach Stephens a thumbs up with Jared” said Martin. “I look forward to watching Jared grow as a solid player”.
“Brennen Walsh has proven to be one of the best local players” said Martin of the Elder high school product. “He starred at Elder and I look forward to him being a solid player for us.”
Howard will come from Jerome high school in Dublin, Ohio where he was part of a state championship team. “Chad has a lot of potential and will bring winning to the program” added Martin. “He has had junior golf success, yet I believe his best golf is in front of him.”
“Overall, this class brings a shot in the arm to the program” lamented Martin. “The amount of championship they bring with them excites me. I feel very good about the direction we are heading and I know the current players are also excited for these young men to arrive.”
