Abilene golfer Aaron Hartman thought if he could do just one thing this season, then he could become one of the better golfers in Class 4A.
“One thing I have been working to improve this year has been to be more consistent,” Hartman said. “Being able to play steady golf is important to shoot lower scores. The highlight this season so far has probably been just steadily improving my scores nearly each tournament. I have placed in the top 10 in most tournaments this year, which is a step up from last year.”
Hartman has made such substantial strides with his game that he now is going to keep playing competitive golf.
“Next year I will be attending Hesston College to continue my athletic and academic career on the golf team,” Hartman said. “I plan to major in business and earn a degree in accounting.”
Hartman also credited his coaches and teammates for being a calming force throughout the season.
“My coaches have been a big help this year for me,” Hartman said. “We have a first-year head coach this year and he is doing a great job adapting to the environment and pushing us to do our best. I enjoy being around my teammates during practice and on car rides. This year has been a lot of fun.”
