Unity’s Justin Wood is the winner of a Golf Saskatchewan Kozy Scholarship valued at $1,000.
The Saskatchewan Academic and Golf Excellence Scholarship program annually presents scholarships to assist deserving Golf Saskatchewan members in their pursuit of high school and post-secondary academic excellence. Successful recipients were selected on the basis of being a Golf Saskatchewan member, academic marks and some weighting on sporting excellence.
Wood attended Montevallo University in Alabama this past year. His summer plans include working at the Elmwood Golf and Country Club in Swift Current and participating in two tournaments this summer in Calgary as well as in the Saskatchewan men’s amateur later in July. Wood is hoping to qualify for the men’s nationals later in the year from his performance at these events.
He will head back to the University of Montevallo in the fall pursing academics as well as in further pursuit of his golf aspirations with their university golf team.
