We, at Barcelona Golf Academy, congratulate Laia Llorens, one of the most beloved pupils of our academy, as she has signed to join Northeastern State University, in Tahlequah (Oklahoma, US), for the 2023/24 season, coming from our Elite Junior Golf Program.
In this way, she will be able to continue her academic education with her studies in the United States, and at the same time join the famous RiverHawks women’s golf team, the girls with the green polo shirt. There she will be able to compete and develop alongside new fellow student-golfers, playing in the exciting golf university competition.
“Laia comes from a family lineage of golf; her brother plays in the Big Ten for Northwestern. She is a strong young lady who works exceptionally hard and will greatly add to our roster”, said Scott Varner, Northeastern State head coach. He also has remembered thar she had 16 rounds in the last season, ranking from the low of 74 to 78 strokes… numerous top-10, with one victory.
“Laia has achieved her goal of going to the United States. Prioritizing her studies a little, she has found a university that meets her academic requirements and that would allow her to continue playing golf. In this way, she will have a good balance, making sure that she can play in a team at her level. She’s very happy and delighted to achieve the goal that she had set for herself”, said Carlos Vivas, head coach of Barcelona Golf Academy.
Congratulations Laia, enjoy it! We will miss you.
