Senior Scott Newell Signs Letter of Intent to attend Oral Roberts University- Scott Newell signed his letter of intent on Wednesday, November 10th. Congratulations to Scott and his parents Dave & Donna Newell!! Scott is currently averaging under par at his Cougar qualifying rounds and won his first tournament of the year at River Ridge. Scott has worked extremely hard throughout his high school career. He has played in countless HGA, TJGT and AJGA events to get to this point. He has been in the top five since his sophomore year. More importantly, he has the respect, integrity, work ethic, leadership, discipline and competitive determination that it takes to lead our program. Way to go Scott. We are all very proud of you!!
