- 1:15[SPEAKER_01]: And Michelle, take her away.
- 1:18[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, so Lacy, you graduated in twenty three, twenty three.
- 1:25[SPEAKER_03]: Lacey was more than just a golfer, but she was also kind of a late-comer to golfer.
- 1:29[SPEAKER_03]: Am I not correct?
- 1:30[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, you get started late because what's the family background?
- 1:35[SPEAKER_03]: What is your family so involved in?
- 1:38[SPEAKER_02]: Me and my brother definitely got into forage more.
- 1:41[SPEAKER_02]: He's a couple of years older than me, so I definitely followed into his footsteps and we started showing pigs when he was little and I think I was nine and that's kind of what we suck with.
- 1:54[SPEAKER_03]: And you guys, but you guys are good to accomplish that.
- 1:57[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, it wasn't just for A to
- 1:59[SPEAKER_03]: your family when you were little, you would travel around to several hawkshows and the lovels always get big ones.
- 2:05[SPEAKER_02]: Yep, we would go to lovel.
- 2:07[SPEAKER_02]: We'd go down to Denver National Western Stocks, which my brother won that show in, in, two thousand sixteen.
- 2:13[SPEAKER_02]: So that's, I mean, that was just an awesome experience.
- 2:16[SPEAKER_02]: The National Western Stocks show is awesome.
- 2:18[SPEAKER_02]: You got me.
- 2:20[SPEAKER_02]: I can't say enough great things about that show.
- 2:23[SPEAKER_02]: And then we'd go to Georgia.
- 2:28[SPEAKER_02]: kind of just that I was sometimes but it was fun.
- 2:31[SPEAKER_01]: I have a question before we go on and we'll get back on this topic.
- 2:35[SPEAKER_01]: The yes man thing was that something before you went south or is that something you picked up?
- 2:42[SPEAKER_02]: a little bit of both.
- 2:43[SPEAKER_02]: It definitely wasn't as hard until I went down the school.
- 2:46[SPEAKER_02]: My first coach when I got down there freshman year was you were spawned yes ma'am and I was like oh that's there we go.
- 2:52[SPEAKER_02]: That's easy.
- 2:53[SPEAKER_02]: Just trying to be polite and respectful always.
- 2:55[SPEAKER_01]: I wondered if the South did that too.
- 2:57[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
- 2:58[SPEAKER_03]: Pretty sure.
- 2:59[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, but when you've growing up, I mean, I think the first sport that you took to kind of was basketball.
- 3:05[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, man.
- 3:06[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I definitely basketball was my thing for a really long time in which I still love basketball today, but I'm a little too short and a little too small to probably.
- 3:14[SPEAKER_02]: You know, jump into that career like I did golf.
- 3:16[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, although you did a nice job of having that play and coming at you since your middle school years and yeah playing as a senior.
- 3:23[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, that was pretty cool, but yeah golf.
- 3:25[SPEAKER_01]: Tell us when you go from pig farming to golfing.
- 3:29[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, you know, and then basketball.
- 3:33[SPEAKER_03]: So when did golf become an interest and then
- 3:37[SPEAKER_02]: Well, my dad was a golfer in high school, and then he was ardent.
- 3:40[SPEAKER_03]: Heard dad, by the way, is RJ Logan, and he was a woman to the blue illegal.
- 3:45[SPEAKER_02]: yep and so he always had clubs and then obviously my brother he did play sports but he was definitely more drawn into the pigs and he still is today and we just started swinging out in the yard and it was my sixth year and I was like you know what maybe maybe I'll try it so I started swinging and then got on the team and middle school and just kind of picked it up from there.
- 4:06[SPEAKER_03]: When did you get rules?
- 4:07[SPEAKER_03]: When did you get serious about it?
- 4:10[SPEAKER_02]: Probably my freshman is off more year yep
- 4:14[SPEAKER_03]: And I say that because I will say this and I can't remember who it was, but I think I was talking to somebody last week about you.
- 4:24[SPEAKER_03]: You know, I'd seen you out in the schedule of podcasts and I was so glad I ran into Lacey Logan and they said we out.
- 4:31[SPEAKER_03]: We've talked about how hard it was so much fun.
- 4:33[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, I know who it was.
- 4:34[SPEAKER_03]: I believe it was that they've quickly.
- 4:37[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, Lucy's grandpa.
- 4:39[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 4:39[SPEAKER_03]: It was talked about how he always admired how hard you worked at your game and how much you improved.
- 4:44[SPEAKER_02]: I really appreciate that for him.
- 4:46[SPEAKER_02]: He's a nice guy.
- 4:47[SPEAKER_02]: I always like staying around here, I think, of course.
- 4:50[SPEAKER_03]: So he was happy to hear.
- 4:51[SPEAKER_03]: He wanted to know how you were doing and down there at Huntington.
- 4:55[SPEAKER_03]: So why don't you kind of tell us about your career at Huntington?
- 5:00[SPEAKER_02]: well uh my went down my freshman year at the very beginning like before everyone went back and you do like four or five days into orientation and then you just kind of get right into the season we have a spring and a fall season so it was just kind of you jumped right into it was everyone on the team and uh
- 5:19[SPEAKER_02]: freshman year was fun.
- 5:20[SPEAKER_02]: I got to travel a decent amount of times, got an all-conference, able to not exactly for sure what the word was called, but for academics and you have to travel so many times and have a good GPA.
- 5:32[SPEAKER_02]: So I got to be a part of that and then we kind of fell short.
- 5:37[SPEAKER_02]: My freshman year in conference we did get B and then our rankings weren't.
- 5:40[SPEAKER_02]: We were like ranked
- 5:41[SPEAKER_02]: Twenty-eight so it didn't get to get a national's that year, but all around my freshman year was super fun.
- 5:48[SPEAKER_02]: I had a great time.
- 5:49[SPEAKER_03]: So tell me real quick before we go on.
- 5:51[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah past that cause I'm stupid me or silly me.
- 5:54[SPEAKER_03]: I skipped a thing.
- 5:56[SPEAKER_03]: What made you decide?
- 5:57[SPEAKER_03]: How did you on hunting to handle all of that come about but because that is
- 6:02[SPEAKER_03]: Can I far away from home?
- 6:03[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, just a quick nine hours, not too bad.
- 6:07[SPEAKER_02]: Actually an app called NCSA, any kind of athlete can get on it.
- 6:13[SPEAKER_02]: I got on it my junior year and just a bunch of coaches can contact you.
- 6:17[SPEAKER_02]: You can look at coaches and the coach from hunting and contacted me after I visited a school in Oklahoma.
- 6:24[SPEAKER_02]: It was a D-II, but it was very small.
- 6:27[SPEAKER_02]: There was not much going on there, and I knew I wanted to go south.
- 6:30[SPEAKER_02]: I really loved the warmth, and I was like, you know what?
- 6:33[SPEAKER_02]: Dad, I think I don't think I can do this one.
- 6:35[SPEAKER_02]: So we went back up, and I just went to hunting, and that was my last visit ever, and I was like, yeah, it just clicks.
- 6:43[SPEAKER_02]: You know, when you get on the campus, you're like, well,
- 6:45[SPEAKER_02]: I think it's here for sure.
- 6:47[SPEAKER_03]: And the quick nine hours means she's in Montgomery, Alabama.
- 6:52[SPEAKER_03]: And I guess the nice thing is it's down there.
- 6:54[SPEAKER_03]: It's probably relatively, is it a relatively small college?
- 6:57[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
- 6:57[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
- 6:57[SPEAKER_03]: We're pretty small.
- 6:58[SPEAKER_03]: Montgomery's a nice city.
- 7:00[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 7:00[SPEAKER_03]: I mean as far as size gives you plenty of opportunities to do.
- 7:04[SPEAKER_02]: For sure.
- 7:05[SPEAKER_02]: Auburn's forty five minutes away too.
- 7:07[SPEAKER_02]: Montgomery obviously there's a big golf Auburn.
- 7:11[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 7:12[SPEAKER_02]: Oh yeah.
- 7:13[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we're being silly.
- 7:14[SPEAKER_01]: I know.
- 7:16[SPEAKER_01]: One national champion was the last two, haven't they?
- 7:19[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not for sure.
- 7:19[SPEAKER_01]: I think so, yeah.
- 7:20[SPEAKER_02]: Thanks, so there you go.
- 7:21[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 7:22[SPEAKER_02]: But, okay.
- 7:23[SPEAKER_01]: Sorry.
- 7:24[SPEAKER_02]: No, that's all right.
- 7:25[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, yeah.
- 7:25[SPEAKER_03]: And, you know, she was talking about her or so, and I've met, did not mention this to start.
- 7:33[SPEAKER_03]: Not only is Lacey accomplished on the athletic field, but she's also an accomplished student, so, and try to be.
- 7:41[SPEAKER_01]: So that's the major.
- 7:42[SPEAKER_02]: I'm a business administration major, and then I'm a minor in business leadership.
- 7:47[SPEAKER_02]: But tell us what you, because you've already told me, I don't know what's the plan.
- 7:50[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, but she's never your plan last week.
- 7:51[SPEAKER_02]: It's interesting.
- 7:52[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 7:53[SPEAKER_02]: My plan is, you know, I'm about to be a junior at Huntington and have four more seasons of golf, and that's kind of, uh,
- 8:00[SPEAKER_02]: What I'm really thinking about is getting back into that season, but after I graduate from college, I want to have that business background and then go and join flight school.
- 8:09[SPEAKER_02]: I hope to get my pilot's license or not.
- 8:12[SPEAKER_02]: I don't necessarily want to do commercial or anything like that, but I really want to do sales.
- 8:17[SPEAKER_02]: That's kind of my passion.
- 8:18[SPEAKER_02]: That's always been what I've been going towards.
- 8:22[SPEAKER_02]: but therefore while I just didn't know what I wanted to do and my step grandpa has a airplane and I got up in it and I was like, yep, I think this is what I want to do so.
- 8:33[SPEAKER_01]: You know where you feel comfortable.
- 8:34[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 8:34[SPEAKER_01]: I'm sitting in the air.
- 8:36[SPEAKER_03]: Hey, did he let you take you?
- 8:37[SPEAKER_03]: Did he let you take you?
- 8:38[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, we have family friends that are pilots and they get there was somebody that let them use their small plane.
- 8:46[SPEAKER_03]: And I remember they came and that's when out there by tractor, they had that landing trip.
- 8:51[SPEAKER_03]: They came and let us know they were coming in.
- 8:52[SPEAKER_03]: I got to go up and they actually let me take it for a while and I said, you know, I said I wish they had had the money too.
- 9:00[SPEAKER_03]: take flying license, I could have come up with a made a take flying license, but the problem is I would be hard to find an expensive sport.
- 9:07[SPEAKER_03]: It is, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's
- 9:27[SPEAKER_02]: Uh, his name is Tim.
- 9:28[SPEAKER_02]: He's an awesome, awesome guy.
- 9:30[SPEAKER_02]: I'm so so glad that he's in my life.
- 9:33[SPEAKER_02]: Um, yeah, I've gotten, he let me fly and everything.
- 9:37[SPEAKER_02]: I'm really excited to see like what also I can learn.
- 9:39[SPEAKER_02]: That's kind of my next two years.
- 9:41[SPEAKER_02]: I'm kind of waiting, but I'm still thinking ahead.
- 9:45[SPEAKER_02]: I guess if you would, um, just something new.
- 9:48[SPEAKER_02]: Something I haven't even been, been around really too much, but
- 9:53[SPEAKER_02]: I'm just excited.
- 9:53[SPEAKER_02]: Well, you know, but I know enough, but I really, you know, you got to dive in really, really get to know everything.
- 9:59[SPEAKER_02]: That's what I'm most excited about for sure.
- 10:01[SPEAKER_01]: So, not your pigs aren't your future.
- 10:04[SPEAKER_02]: No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
- 10:30[SPEAKER_03]: I should say something more she's in the past season was kind of got to do the fall but then your spray was kind of cut short.
- 10:37[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, that is right.
- 10:38[SPEAKER_02]: I got to got back and got right back into it like in the fall and played in the first tournament and then
- 10:47[SPEAKER_02]: went to the home tournament and my shoulder just fell apart on me.
- 10:51[SPEAKER_02]: I really didn't know what was going on.
- 10:52[SPEAKER_02]: I tried to go to the Kyra Praktor and you know do everything else and it just didn't work out for me.
- 10:59[SPEAKER_02]: So I had to uh
- 11:02[SPEAKER_02]: I kind of waited the character told me to not practice for two weeks and just hopefully it'll calm down or, you know, I didn't tear anything.
- 11:10[SPEAKER_02]: So hopefully, you know, avoid surgery at all costs.
- 11:13[SPEAKER_02]: That just wasn't the case for me.
- 11:16[SPEAKER_02]: So I missed all the fall season and then
- 11:19[SPEAKER_02]: I was talking to my dad actually when I before we came back from school and I was like you know I want to play so bad because my the seniors that are there I you know you just wanted I just wanted to play with our seniors and he was like but we we had I was really solid five and I could have had a chance not to make it so I could have just ruined my shoulder more and then still not been able to travel so that was kind of our decision before I came back that hey probably should just get surgery now and skip the sophomore season and fully recovered for junior
- 11:49[SPEAKER_02]: And that's what we were on life.
- 11:50[SPEAKER_02]: So I had MDI surgery in my shoulder here in Indiana or in Denver.
- 11:55[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, team doctors are school doctor.
- 11:58[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 11:59[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it went well.
- 12:02[SPEAKER_02]: Definitely.
- 12:03[SPEAKER_03]: So what's the rehab in like?
- 12:06[SPEAKER_02]: it's been rough it's been a little rough it's now we're kind of we're back to back to swinging back to everything else uh my shoulder blade and neck and trap just get really tight and like like to lock up but and then my bicep tendon will sometimes still be a little pain but other than that I think I'm I'm ready I'm ready have you just had to change your swing at all is that any doctor recommended that changing your swing to alleviate some of that
- 12:37[SPEAKER_02]: No, Dr. has really said anything.
- 12:38[SPEAKER_02]: I think it's more of, uh, I'm definitely more restricted now with my ability.
- 12:42[SPEAKER_02]: I've got, I mean, they're just almost double joining.
- 12:45[SPEAKER_02]: They can do, they're, they're doing way too much.
- 12:47[SPEAKER_02]: So now that it's finally actually tied back, uh, my swings probably is definitely a little shorter.
- 12:52[SPEAKER_02]: I've been swinging out here and trying to practice, but I really, I just need to go back to school and get a lesson from our swing coach because my short game, that's all I could work on.
- 13:01[SPEAKER_02]: So my short game, I'm just still hanging away at that, but I don't want to waste my time.
- 13:05[SPEAKER_02]: and just swing and learn bad habits when I can just go down there and try to knock it down as fast as possible.
- 13:11[SPEAKER_03]: So we're in August so when are you looking to head back down that way then and start working with the swing coach and start your junior year.
- 13:18[SPEAKER_02]: I leave Saturday morning actually at five in the morning and then we start school on that Monday.
- 13:25[SPEAKER_02]: It's coming up.
- 13:27[SPEAKER_02]: It is.
- 13:27[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, summer is over.
- 13:28[SPEAKER_02]: Sadly.
- 13:30[SPEAKER_01]: Sadly you're not ready to get back.
- 13:32[SPEAKER_02]: Yes and no.
- 13:33[SPEAKER_02]: Yes and no.
- 13:34[SPEAKER_01]: I hear you.
- 13:34[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 13:35[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 13:35[SPEAKER_02]: I do.
- 13:36[SPEAKER_02]: I do enjoy being home for sure.
- 13:38[SPEAKER_02]: But it's time to get back.
- 13:40[SPEAKER_02]: It's time to get back to the ground.
- 13:42[SPEAKER_01]: Just like a little bit longer.
- 13:43[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 13:44[SPEAKER_02]: It's like a couple more weeks.
- 13:45[SPEAKER_02]: I hear you.
- 13:46[SPEAKER_02]: I could use a couple more weeks.
- 13:47[SPEAKER_02]: But that's not sure.
- 13:49[SPEAKER_01]: I hear working on it, right?
- 13:51[SPEAKER_01]: Trying to.
- 13:51[SPEAKER_01]: How many rounds you got in?
- 13:53[SPEAKER_02]: Uh.
- 13:55[SPEAKER_03]: Five since Thursday.
- 13:57[SPEAKER_03]: So as I say at least, being able to do your short game though, that's you have some advantages.
- 14:02[SPEAKER_03]: Especially if you don't get the length on your drives and t-shirts as once you start back.
- 14:08[SPEAKER_02]: Which yeah, it could be a little I'm definitely a little shaky for sure once I get back, but hopefully I should not lose any distance.
- 14:17[SPEAKER_02]: And since my swing was already kind of long anyway, and if I can just get all my power back, I feel like we'll be kind of right back where we left off.
- 14:25[SPEAKER_02]: Hopefully better because my short game is better.
- 14:27[SPEAKER_02]: But the grass is going to be so different.
- 14:29[SPEAKER_02]: So it's just going to be, it's always something now.
- 14:32[SPEAKER_02]: Honestly, once you leave first going, you go back and you're like, oh, I forget how hard this grass was around the grains, but you know, you just gotta get used to it again.
- 14:41[SPEAKER_03]: Of course, you came through the titan program, and so, you know, Emma Kelly and Lucy, quickly, were ahead of you.
- 14:51[SPEAKER_03]: Of course, Coach, or Coach Lee, the cop, Gilman, had was one of the first, you know, first button.
- 14:58[SPEAKER_03]: And then now, and of course, you played with Josie, correct?
- 15:03[SPEAKER_03]: Yep.
- 15:03[SPEAKER_03]: Yep.
- 15:04[SPEAKER_03]: Her freshman year.
- 15:05[SPEAKER_03]: And, um, soft.
- 15:07[SPEAKER_03]: It's all for your freshman and sophomore year.
- 15:09[SPEAKER_03]: Yep.
- 15:10[SPEAKER_03]: So, and then now you get, you know, and then you, there's Kenny, what is it kind of nice to look at the golf program at Tipto Nell and see that you were part of success and just to see that success continue to know you can hit any of that.
- 15:25[SPEAKER_02]: Oh yeah, I think it's I'm just I'm glad there's still out here playing hard and girls still want to play golf.
- 15:32[SPEAKER_02]: I know the landcaster girl and Josie are both great players.
- 15:36[SPEAKER_02]: So I'm excited to see what they have in store and I'm glad that Tip Tipton's looks like we could have a pretty good season.
- 15:43[SPEAKER_02]: The girls could.
- 15:43[SPEAKER_02]: Yes after winning that first tournament, I mean that's awesome.
- 15:46[SPEAKER_03]: I mean they got they actually placed third into the secret tournament on Monday and
- 15:52[SPEAKER_03]: That was Coach Bale said that Harrison, they played Harrison Hills, and he said that the greens were especially tricky and tough, but he was pretty happy for the first outing.
- 16:04[SPEAKER_03]: And then, of course, they came back yesterday at Rinsalir and I won, and Kenny Schottle won under seventy won, so that's to earn over all.
- 16:12[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, to earn the conference course, and then
- 16:16[SPEAKER_03]: Presley Cherry they're moving from Hamilton Heights.
- 16:18[SPEAKER_03]: She shot her career best seventy eight to get second place metal astoners and then Josie came with an eighty two for fourth place metal astoners and Josie was third place metal astoners on Mondays.
- 16:31[SPEAKER_02]: That's also yeah.
- 16:32[SPEAKER_02]: I mean can't be happier.
- 16:33[SPEAKER_02]: That's also.
- 16:34[SPEAKER_03]: No, I know I think he I think Jason's really excited.
- 16:37[SPEAKER_03]: He knows if he can get to
- 16:40[SPEAKER_03]: You know, I think conference is he's looking at that now and I think he thinks if you could just get the other two golfers just get them down about ten fifteen strokes that, you know, you might have, they might have an outside shot to get out of a very, very tough section.
- 16:55[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
- 16:56[SPEAKER_01]: You remember?
- 16:57[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I remember.
- 16:58[SPEAKER_01]: You played against some of those girls were one in state championship, I'm sure.
- 17:01[SPEAKER_03]: Because you're coming off your shoulder surgery, I'm sure that you're
- 17:06[SPEAKER_02]: you are probably going to rent it but I'm sure have you kind of adjusted your goals for this season because you're coming off that or are you just like no I just go no definitely not we're we're going pedal to the metal here I mean the gas the gas is gonna stay on uh this is one of my very close friends is a senior so I'm trying to we're trying to win again and have another conference ring and I'm trying to
- 17:36[SPEAKER_02]: trying to shoot some good scores.
- 17:37[SPEAKER_02]: We got a good team again this year, so it should be, it should be pretty good.
- 17:42[SPEAKER_03]: And did you earn back at a Maco conference again last year, too, as a sophomore?
- 17:46[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
- 17:46[SPEAKER_03]: That's what I thought, two times.
- 17:48[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
- 17:50[SPEAKER_03]: It's pretty good.
- 17:50[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
- 17:51[SPEAKER_01]: Not bad.
- 17:51[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, so tell us what all is Huntington College kind of what are they known for?
- 17:59[SPEAKER_03]: What are they?
- 18:00[SPEAKER_03]: Is there any
- 18:01[SPEAKER_03]: The name is all I'm like.
- 18:03[SPEAKER_03]: Or are any sport?
- 18:05[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, is there any neat traditions or something?
- 18:06[SPEAKER_03]: Because I know sometimes some of those small colleges have some really neat traditions.
- 18:11[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, there is a couple neat traditions at Huntington.
- 18:15[SPEAKER_02]: It's called the Red Lady Run.
- 18:16[SPEAKER_02]: The sororities put it on and it's an old tale.
- 18:22[SPEAKER_02]: Evidently, there was a girl with a red dress and one of the halls, one of the dorm halls and she
- 18:30[SPEAKER_02]: is haunting our campus.
- 18:32[SPEAKER_01]: So one of our love haunting stories.
- 18:36[SPEAKER_02]: So all the stories get together and they run through all the buildings and knock on the doors and scream and yell and channel.
- 18:46[SPEAKER_02]: That's one that was pretty cool.
- 18:48[SPEAKER_02]: Sounds fun.
- 18:49[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 18:50[SPEAKER_02]: There's a couple.
- 18:51[SPEAKER_02]: There's one for the seniors that I can't remember what it's called, but like you can't know anything.
- 18:55[SPEAKER_02]: No one knows what's going to go on until you get there.
- 18:58[SPEAKER_02]: So I got one more years ago.
- 19:01[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure.
- 19:04[SPEAKER_02]: All right.
- 19:05[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, so you said the really the stories are you on.
- 19:09[SPEAKER_03]: Are you in a sorority down there?
- 19:11[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I'm in Kaya.
- 19:12[SPEAKER_02]: Kaya Omega.
- 19:13[SPEAKER_02]: Yep.
- 19:15[SPEAKER_02]: All right.
- 19:15[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 19:15[SPEAKER_03]: Does it give you busy too?
- 19:17[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 19:17[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
- 19:18[SPEAKER_02]: For sure.
- 19:19[SPEAKER_02]: For sure.
- 19:20[SPEAKER_03]: Always stuff to do.
- 19:26[SPEAKER_03]: What do you enjoy most about?
- 19:31[SPEAKER_03]: Alabama and do you how often do you get back this way?
- 19:35[SPEAKER_02]: I'm gonna guess maybe just holidays and the summer and yeah mostly I've been up like one time other than like breaks that's been about it
- 19:48[SPEAKER_02]: Probably, I just love the warm.
- 19:51[SPEAKER_02]: I love it.
- 19:51[SPEAKER_03]: I like it to be warm longer.
- 19:53[SPEAKER_03]: So your future will be down south somewhere.
- 19:57[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
- 19:58[SPEAKER_03]: Whether after you're schooling, yes.
- 20:00[SPEAKER_03]: Do your advanced schooling for airplane industry and everything.
- 20:03[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
- 20:03[SPEAKER_03]: You don't want to be hired and live somewhere down there.
- 20:06[SPEAKER_03]: Yes.
- 20:07[SPEAKER_02]: That is the all-time goal, but obviously, you know, thanks change.
- 20:11[SPEAKER_02]: And if that's not how it works now, I wouldn't be too upset, but I'm going to try pretty pretty hard to stay down south.
- 20:17[SPEAKER_03]: How hard was it for your parents to send you, how hard is it for them to send you that far away to school?
- 20:25[SPEAKER_02]: I think now they're pretty used to it.
- 20:26[SPEAKER_02]: Now that I'm a junior, I think we're, I think it's good and now that yeah, I think it's fine.
- 20:31[SPEAKER_02]: Now my freshman year I think we're all three, we're a little shaky for a couple of days, but just because I'm the last kid.
- 20:39[SPEAKER_02]: But I think we're it's pretty back and forth.
- 20:42[SPEAKER_03]: So how hard is it with that?
- 20:43[SPEAKER_03]: She's probably got to be pretty hard on them to have both of their children away.
- 20:48[SPEAKER_03]: And I can say that because my youngest sister her daughter and husband live in Colorado and her sons and terminate in the air forceful when they I mean Abigail went off to
- 20:59[SPEAKER_03]: She was a college, she went to the University of Texas in Austin, and Anthony was at Western Kentucky, and they didn't live in those states.
- 21:05[SPEAKER_03]: In fact, my brother-in-law was active, army reserves, so they moved around a lot.
- 21:10[SPEAKER_03]: So they always told their children, my niece and my nephew, to pick a school that fit them, and it didn't matter where it was.
- 21:19[SPEAKER_03]: because there was no guarantee they would know where they were going to be and they might go to a state school and they were there and they might have to move the following year so don't pick it based on proximity to mom and dad because mom and dad made it happen to move right
- 21:35[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I think what's best still made it harder for them to be that far away.
- 21:40[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, I bet.
- 21:41[SPEAKER_02]: I'm saying I think the best for my parents is that we're both kind of older and they're still pretty young.
- 21:48[SPEAKER_02]: So they can they travel a lot and go see my brother and my nephew and count they're able to come to tournaments and stuff like this.
- 21:56[SPEAKER_03]: And now your grandparents, they have a place in Florida correct?
- 21:59[SPEAKER_03]: Yes ma'am.
- 21:59[SPEAKER_03]: Do they come up to the drive up Taliban to see you?
- 22:03[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, I'm in the spring.
- 22:04[SPEAKER_02]: They'll come to a tournament or two.
- 22:07[SPEAKER_02]: So that's really nice.
- 22:08[SPEAKER_02]: I love seeing them.
- 22:10[SPEAKER_03]: So where do you play most of your tournaments?
- 22:12[SPEAKER_03]: Because you are in a warm weather state.
- 22:14[SPEAKER_03]: Do you play them there?
- 22:16[SPEAKER_03]: Where do you travel?
- 22:18[SPEAKER_02]: We'll have one at home.
- 22:19[SPEAKER_02]: We have one in Kentucky.
- 22:21[SPEAKER_02]: One in Dustin and one in Georgia.
- 22:24[SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
- 22:24[SPEAKER_02]: So we're kind of a little bit everywhere.
- 22:25[SPEAKER_02]: Kentucky.
- 22:26[SPEAKER_02]: We normally don't go to.
- 22:27[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know what this tournament is.
- 22:29[SPEAKER_02]: I think it's just
- 22:31[SPEAKER_02]: kind of a pre-rap to the season.
- 22:33[SPEAKER_02]: I think.
- 22:34[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, this fall.
- 22:35[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, this fall.
- 22:36[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, we're about to be Kentucky.
- 22:38[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not for sure.
- 22:39[SPEAKER_02]: Honestly, I always I saw was Kentucky in the days and I said, okay, that's when I need to be ready by.
- 22:43[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, so tell us.
- 22:46[SPEAKER_03]: You tell us where people can go if they want to check your golf schedule So if they want it, especially because you know tip does got some golfers.
- 22:53[SPEAKER_03]: They yeah, they may go on be planning golf trips somewhere or be on a trip It if they wanted to check the schedule to see if you're going to be playing somewhere and come and check you out how where where they go to get your schedule

- 23:25[SPEAKER_02]: No, definitely not definitely, uh, dinner regret.
- 23:28[SPEAKER_01]: She probably wouldn't be returning if she had
- 23:32[SPEAKER_01]: A couple of quick things before we go.
- 23:34[SPEAKER_01]: Number one, famous alumni from Huntington, some big time.
- 23:38[SPEAKER_01]: First of all, former attorney general Jeff Sessions is a Huntington graduate.
- 23:44[SPEAKER_01]: And also, Harper Lee is a Huntington graduate.
- 23:48[SPEAKER_01]: The author of maybe the greatest American novel ever written.
- 23:51[SPEAKER_01]: To kill him, I can read it.
- 23:53[SPEAKER_02]: Gosh, I forgot about that.
- 23:55[SPEAKER_01]: Check that out when you get back.
- 23:57[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I guess I need to hook up on my history.
- 23:59[SPEAKER_02]: Cowley.
- 24:00[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you do.
- 24:02[SPEAKER_01]: And my last question is going to be kind of a two-parter.
- 24:06[SPEAKER_02]: That's fine.
- 24:08[SPEAKER_01]: What's the most southern thing you've seen since you've been in Alabama?
- 24:11[SPEAKER_01]: And what are the biggest adjustments you had to make to the South?
- 24:15[SPEAKER_02]: Uh, probably the vehicles, vehicles are probably the most like southern thing being in Montgomery, you're kind of more in the city like we're south, but we're working on it.
- 24:28[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, kind of in the city.
- 24:29[SPEAKER_02]: It's probably mostly the kids from my school or just like a random person.
- 24:33[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, they just got huge rams or really jacked up truck or like almost dragging to the floor truck.
- 24:40[SPEAKER_02]: You just never know what vehicle you're gonna see pass by.
- 24:42[SPEAKER_02]: That's probably the most like southern.
- 24:45[SPEAKER_02]: thing I've seen down there.
- 24:46[SPEAKER_02]: And then biggest adjustment.
- 24:49[SPEAKER_01]: Of course.

- 24:58[SPEAKER_02]: It's about the same.

- 25:02[SPEAKER_01]: For longer.
- 25:03[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, for longer.
- 25:04[SPEAKER_02]: Not a lot of differences.
