Making history for your post-secondary institution and having fun while you’re at it.
That’s how Confederation College Thunderhawk golfer Matthew Cho-Chu remembers the opportunity to represent his school at the Canadian Collegiate Athletic Associations (CCAA) National Championship October 12-16 hosted by St. Clair College in Windsor.
Cho-Chu was the first from the College to make it to the Canadian Championship.
The Mechanical Engineering student placed 19th with a score of +15 (228).
Inclement weather suspended the final round of play, which reduced the event to 54 holes.
“It was a significant accomplishment,” Cho-Chu told Acadia News Monday. “Just getting the chance to experience this is something you don’t see very often. I got to see other high level golfers from all over Canada, which was interesting.”
Cho-Chu has plans to pick up the clubs again in 2022.
