For South Carolina athletes, 2016-17 has been remarkable in terms of showing their excellence on the national stage. For starters, the Coastal Carolina Chanticleers won their first ever national college baseball championship. For a relatively young school of a smaller size to achieve this lofty rank was incredible! This was followed by the NCAA Football Championship being won by the Clemson Tigers. More recently, the outstanding achievement of the University of South Carolina’s men’s and women’s basketball teams making it to their respective final fours, with the women’s team claiming victory in the finals, making the Lady Gamecocks, the well-deserved NCAA WBB National Champions!

Topping it all off, from the world of golf, Irmo’s own Dustin Johnson winning six times in the last eighteen tournaments, most recently, the World Golf Championships. This week, due to injury, he has withdrawn from the Masters Tournament held 60 miles down the road from us, in Augusta, Georgia. Without a doubt; Dustin was a favorite of many to win the Masters this year. I have full confidence that a Masters win is imminent in this promising young champion’s future!
