OREM—Utah Valley University men's golf coach
Chris Curran has announced that University of Idaho sophomore Joseph Glenn will transfer to UVU and play for the Wolverines next season.
Â
"Joseph is a really solid player," said Curran. "His game was trending in the right direction just before the season ended this spring. He's the type of kid that can make a big impact right away for us."
Â
Glenn spent the last two seasons at Idaho where he appeared in 10 tournaments over his two seasons with the Vandals. He took over Idaho's No. 1 spot on the team in the fall of 2019 and led the team with a 73.5 scoring average. He earned Big Sky Conference Player of the Week on Nov. 1, 2019 after shooing three consecutive rounds under par (70, 70, 71) at the Hoakalei Collegiate Invitational in Oahu, Hawaii. He finished in a tie for 11th with a 5-under-par 211 at the tournament. He had his best finish of the season at this past spring at the Joust at Goose Creek where he tied for sixth with a three-round score of 5-over-par 215 (69-67-79).
Â
The Post Falls, Idaho native prepped at Post Falls High School where he led the Trojans during their best season in school history, taking fourth and fifth as a team at the Idaho 5A State Tournament. Glenn posted the team's lowest scoring average in each of his final three years and held the lowest scoring average in the 5A District I as a senior. He won the district title as a senior by four strokes and took sixth at the state tournament. Glenn also picked up junior golf titles in Arizona, Idaho, and Washington.
Â
Glenn will join the Wolverines for the 2020-21 season.
