Brownwood High School athlete Sydney Roberts received notice Wednesday that she was selected to the High School Golf Scoreboard (HSGS) 2013 First Team All-State for 3A.
Roberts received the honor for her freshman year performance. Roberts placed 3rd at the District UIL tournament and was able to advance to Regionals, proving to be one to watch, despite it being her first year of high school play.
The All-State Teams are picked from the top players in the final 2012-13 rankings provided by Golfstat, and span the entire state from 1A to 5A UIL. To view all players selected to the All-State teams and honorable mention, CLICK HERE.
Her coach, Laura Martin, after the district meet stated, “I am very proud of Sydney for making it to Regionals and also for finishing district with a great round.”
High School Golf Scoreboard was launched in the Fall of 2009 to provide national exposure for high school golf players, teams and coaches. Tournament rankings are provided by Golfstat, the same company who scores NCAA Golf. Members are able to create a personal profile to highlight their High School & Jr. Golf results as well as Academic and Extra-Curricular activities. This information will provide college golf coaches as well as college admissions & financial aid officers the opportunity to review each member’s profile in the quest for an academic, leadership or athletic scholarship.
HSGS is now the largest ranking system in the country surpassing Jr. Golf Scoreboard and Golfweek. This is a testament to the leadership of the state coaches association (TAGC) and the involvement of coaches across the state getting involved to make Texas high school golf the most recognized golf state in the country.
