Jace Regier of Hesston was chosen as the All Seasons Letterman of the Month for May. Regier is a football player and golfer for the Swathers.
“The most important thing for any multi-sport athlete to know is how to balance their time between academics and their focus-sport,” Regier said. “This looks different for everyone, but my balance revolves around golf. Considering my responsibilities as a student, I am satisfied if I can be on the golf course for 45 minutes per day out-of-season. In season, this looks more like two hours per day.”
While Regier has played football in high school, golf is by far his greatest priority.
“It’s my primary focus during the winter and spring months,” Regier said.
The 2022 golf season has been a good one for Regier, who is a fixture for Hesston, which is one of the top teams in Class 3A.
“As of now, I am ranked in the top 20 in Kansas 3A golf with a career low of 72,” Regier said.
Regier is not only busy in athletics, but he is also heavily involved in clubs and extracurricular activities at Hesston.
“I am involved in a variety of clubs and extracurricular activities at Hesston,” Regier said. “I currently serve as the student-body president and was the junior class representative prior to this position. I have also been on the varsity golf team for the past four years and am an active member of Future Business Leaders of America where I have qualified for the national competition two years in a row. Additionally, I am an executive member of Hesston High’s sports media department, the Swather Sports Network.”
