Dear Coach,

My name is Cory Thelen and I live in Castle Rock, Colorado. I have been competitively golfing at the state and regional level for the past 4 years, preparing for college golf. As a senior at Rock Canyon High School, I take my education as a major priority, having a current cumulative GPA of 3.7 (out of 4.0). I am looking for a school with a competitive golf team and an educational field in science and engineering. As a freshman, competing on the varsity level, my tournament scoring average was 79, sophomore year my tournament scoring average was a 77. My junior year tournament scoring average was a 75, and being in my senior season I have still been improving. As each year has progressed I am getting stronger and smarter. My strengths include my attitude, my support for the team, and my consistency of play week to week. I am eagerly looking forward to the challenges of collegiate golf.

I've been a 1st team All-conference player for Rock Canyon golf team the past 3 seasons. My junior year our team came in 6th at the 4A state championship title. Personally, I finished T-46 place. Outside of high school I have competed in several state and regional tournaments. I have competed in tournaments such as the Big I State Championship, Colorado Junior Golf Association Championships, and Rocky Mountain Junior Golf Tour Championships. I have also competed in the Under Armor College Golf Combine this summer taking first place in the region and being ranked as the #3 player in the nation. I recently played a major role in the Rock Canyon High School team taking 2nd place in state posting a 73 in the final round.

I have included my All American Collegiate Consulting Profile; please take a minute to look it over. If you have any questions, please feel free to consult either of my coaches or collegiate consultant, Tony Giarratano at 303-908-4377. I would appreciate any information you could send regarding your school and golf program. Thank you very much for your time and consideration. I am looking forward to hearing back from you soon. Best of luck this upcoming season!

Sincerely,

Cory Thelen
