Matt Langan
Matt Langan, a senior on the Washington and Lee golf team from Prospect, Ky., showed up this week with a q-and-a interview in the Armchair Golf Blog. It’s an interesting interview, and you can read it at this link. Matt does a particularly good job of relating the particular challenges that go with playing Division III sports at a college with demanding academics. For instance, he talks about the upcoming spring season and the various issues that seniors who aren’t looking at the Professional Golf Association tour in their futures will be juggling: “Our spring season—the one that really matters—will be dependent on how well the seniors (including myself) are able to focus on golf amidst the pressures of finding a job, applying for graduate schools, and/or wanting to soak up the last available bit of the college lifestyle.“
