Hi, my name is Leyni! I am  a senior at Prospect Ridge Academy.

Setting goals, and crushing them is a crucial part of my life, both inside and outside of sports. In my freshman year, I made the varsity golf team and qualified individually for the state tournament. In my sophomore year, I took 4th place in the state regional qualifier, helped my team win second place in the state championship, and broke 80 for the first time. Junior year I continued to drop my scoring average and helped my team win 1st in regionals  & 4th in state. I am entering my senior  season with the goal of being a leader on my team, playing with the top competitors in the state, and finishing in the top of every tournament. Looking ahead to college, I am excited to have committed to continue my academic and athletic journey at Black Hills State  University in South Dakota. I am looking forward to  getting a great education, having meaningful experiences, making lifelong friends, and continuing to grow and compete.
