Get to Know Will ...
Why did you choose the University of Kansas?- I have always been a KU fan, so being able to represent the Jayhawks on the course was a dream since I started playing.
What is your home course and your favorite part about it?
- My home course is Hallbrook Country Club in Leawood, Kansas. The community of members is very inviting and they make it a fun place to play and practice.
What sport would you play if you did not play golf and why?
- I'd be basketball player. My corner three would get me in the league.
