Henry McGannon 6'6" 205 2013 West Michigan Christian H.S.
Terrific young player with loads of potential. Loves the game, has wonderful imagination for such a young player. Short game belies his years, can get it up and down from anywhere. Played very little competitive golf before high school, and then by any yardstick had a great freshman year. Only freshman on high school team, only player on that team to compete in every varsity match, 1st team All Conference (Lakes 8), 2nd team All Area. Stroke average of 40 for 9 holes.
Continues to get longer and longer, with his height and arc, there's no telling how far he may be able to hit it. Excellent short game, very good putter.
- Sophomore year-2011- saw more improvement:
- 1st Team All Conference (2nd of 77 players)
- 1st Team All Area
- Stroke average dips to 38 for 9 holes
- Won the Spring Lake Junior Golf Championship, 2010 and 2011
- Shot 66 at Spring Lake Country Club and 65 at Fruitport Golf Club, Summer 2011
- Broke par 8 times summer, 2011
- Nominated for All State
- Final Stat sheet: sophomore year
IMPORTANT: Boys Golf in Michigan is played in the Spring, with try outs in March. The majority of these scores were achieved in weather conditions below 50-55 degrees with almost always windy-rainy conditions.
