Senior Spotlight: Kyle Medendorp on his golf season and HHS career


Have you always attended HCS?

No, I moved here in the 4th grade


Do you remember your first day at HHS? How did you feel about starting high school?

I do remember my first day at HHS, I remember approaching it like every other first day at school as I felt ready to start school again and get back into a routine.


Have you changed since freshman year? If so, in what ways?

I do not think I have changed too much since freshman year but if anything I have become more reserved and listen more.


What do you do outside of school?

Outside of school I practice and hangout with teammates.


What activities did you participate in at HHS? What did you enjoy about them?

I participated in Cross Country, Indoor Track, Golf, Mu Alpha Theta, and National Honor Society. I enjoyed participating in High School sports because of the fun I had competing as well as being around my teammates and coaches.


When did you start playing golf? What parts of the sport do you enjoy?

I started playing golf the summer before my 8th grade year but did not start competing till freshman year when I joined the golf team. I enjoy the simplicity of the sport as well as the extreme difficulty it brings, and because of the difficulty, any success is very rewarding.



Was it easy to balance sports and school? How did you balance it?

It was easy to balance sports with school because of the skills you have to learn like writing in the car and how to function with less sleep.


Do you have a favorite teacher or class from HHS?

I enjoyed having many great teachers and classes, but some that stick out to me are Mrs. Wade and her chemistry classes and Coach Bucky and his calculus classes


Do you have a favorite memory from the past four years?

I have many great memories but one of my favorites is winning sectionals in Cross Country.



What is something you are proud of in the last four years?

I am proud of my grades and all my sporting accomplishments.


What are your future plans? Do you feel prepared by HHS for life after graduation?

I plan to attend UAH and study accounting. I feel like HHS has prepared me for life after graduation.


Do you have any life goals?

As anyone, I have a goal to be successful in life


How do you feel about the coronavirus ending your golf season (and school year) early? 

I feel that it is the worst thing that could have happened to me and the seniors especially for the golf season as the team was going to be very successful and had a good chance to win state.


Congrats Kyle on graduating high school!
