Coach Stark’s Comments on Emil: Emil is a player with great power and length off of the tee, using his 6’3 frame to his advantage. Emil also hits his irons long and very accurately. Emil is very particular in how he wants things to be done and has set an extremely high standard for himself. Emil has a great imagination and touch around the greens, which has helped him to shoot very low scores. Emil has worked very hard to improve his wedge game efficiency as well. Emil is a player that leads by example. Emil will be a very solid contributor for the Tigers in 2022.
