During my first year of Pendleton I met Christina Miller. She Showed a quick dedication to golf. Seizing every opportunity to learn, her talent and dedication to her sport has brought her down the college road. The University of Mississippi is lucky to have her talents, on and off the golf course, and I can’t imagine a more suitable venue for her to become whatever she wants to be. Watching her career from the beginning I cant be more proud of my classmate for achieving all that she has. — Anthony Boyer
