Jack Mullen

Edison High School 

Coming into his senior season, Jack Mullen of Edison High School is looking forward to competing in his final year of prep golf. The senior started playing the sport thanks to a family member who introduced him to the game. 

“I started playing golf the summer before my freshman year of high school I was roughly 14 years old. My dad introduced me to golf a long time ago, but I never really like it until that summer,” said Mullen. 

The high school golf season does not tee off until the spring semester, but golfers everywhere are getting rounds in now in preparation. 

“This offseason I’ve really been working on my putting. Throughout my last season my putting was easily the worst part of my game and recently it’s been the best part of my game,” said Mullen. 
 

To prepare himself for competition, Mullen, like many athletes, has a routine. 

“I like to have a few rituals before a tournament that mentally prepare me. The two most important things are always having a chocolate milk before and listening to “Unwritten” on the way to the tournament. That one is a recent addition,but it’s been working great,” said Mullen. 

The team at Edison is hoping to fill some open spots before the season arrives in the spring.

“This year I hope we can assemble a team that is willing to go the distance and practice for that but I’m not too sure how big our team is going to be. We lost two players this year and only have about three left. I’m hoping we can find people this year at tryouts,” said Mullen. 

The senior said he finds inspiration in a family member who he has grown up watching. 

“My brother has been a big inspiration, just recently he became a pro at the golf course I work. He really never knew what he was going to do until we started to really play golf and fell in love with the game. Him becoming a pro has really inspired me and shown me that I can achieve things in the game of golf,” said Mullen. 
 
 Mullen wants to continue playing golf after high school. “The goal is too to play college golf anywhere I can. After that, of course I would love to go play professionally but if that doesn’t end up working, I would most likely take classes in the PGM program and become a pro at a golf course,” said Mullen.
