CHOI SAYS: “I chose Pepperdine University for the many great opportunities to compete against the top players in the world. Malibu has excellent golf weather year-round and the on-campus practice facilities and local country clubs give me an added advantage. I have enjoyed getting to know Coach Laurie and was amazed by the enthusiasm and work ethic in which she guides her players. I am eagerly looking forward to being able to play on the team and represent the Waves."
