November 11, 2019 | | Leave a Comment
A hole in one. That’s the goal of every golf player. When Sam Storey hit his first and only hole in one back in 2012 when he was playing with his grandpa in France, he threw his club up in the air and ran towards hole, his grandpa could not keep up.
“Pure pandemonium, pure joy… I want crazy on such a peaceful and quite place like the golf course”, Storey remembers
Storey is a sophomore at Morningside College. He came to Sioux City from London, England hoping to major in general business. After his anticipated college degree, Storey plans to work his way up as a leading person in a company.
Being able to combine his passion for sports with a college education, is what interested him in the US. The Golf coach and the academic reputation of the school were major reasons why he joined Morningside College.
In his Freshmen year, Storey was part of the first MC Men’s Golf team that made it to nationals.
Other than that, he led the team with the lowest scoring average and played an important role during their successful 2019 run.
He started off his sophomore season even better. About three months into season the men’s golf team is ranked first in GPAC and Storey is individually ranked first as well in conference and 37th in the nation
Sam Storey enjoys soccer a lot and is a supporter of his hometown club, Chelsea FC.
