Congratulations to Head Coach Ross Cash and TKA’s Varsity Boys Golf Team for winning King’s first ever national championship, winning the Antigua National High School Golf Invitational in Scottsdale, Arizona! Also, senior Andrew Kozan dominated the field and won the 2016 individual title!

Here are some of the highlights from TKA's new national champions:

• The Lions defeated 22 teams from the United States and Canada holding a combined total of 65 state championships and 5 national titles.
• The Lions bested the Utah state champions by 11 strokes, the Arizona champions by 15 strokes, and Illinois by 25 strokes.
• As a team, the Lions shot even par for the tournament, beating America’s best by an incredible 11 shots.
• Senior Andrew Kozan shot 7-under par to win the individual title by three strokes.
• In the final round, the Lions shot a school record, 7-under par, 281.
• The team became the first TKA athletes ever to compete outside of the State of Florida.
• Three of TKA’s golfers are committed to NCAA Division I golf programs, two to Auburn University and one to the University of Georgia.  Additionally, the head coach at the University of Arizona scouted the Lions for several hours during the first round of the tournament. 

Most importantly, the team represented Christ well during the tournament, relying on Hebrews 11:1 to overcome what the world would consider impossible odds.  Team members were also able to share that the “King” of The King’s Academy is Jesus Christ, when asked if they were from Arnold Palmer’s golf academy.
