The three-year All-State varsity golfer has led the All Saints Patriots to three consecutive TAPPS 2A State Team Championship titles and has earned three TAPPS Individual State Runner-Up titles. In his junior year, Jackson earned All-State Academic honors.
He is the fourth All Saints athlete to sign to compete at the collegiate level. He is the second to sign with a Division 1 program.
Drake began playing golf when he was five years old, but said he developed a love for the game four years ago after attending his first PGA tournament. He has played on an All Saints golf team since the sixth grade, but his golf career includes playing in national tournaments across the country throughout his high school career. These tournaments include the invitation-only Junior PGA Championship, Ben Hogan Junior Cup, Texas State Juniors Championship, Legends Junior Tour, and American Junior Golf Association. Drake’s average 18-hole golf score and tournament score is a 71 with a .9 handicap.
