8 WHERE ARE THEY NOW? TOREY BRUMMETT BGSU MEN S GOLF ALUM ( ) I am currently working for All Phase Electric Distribution in Toledo, OH. I am specializing in sales for Electrical Distribution Supplies. My favorite BGSU golf memory was teeing off as the sun came up at Torrey Pines my senior year in My favorite spot to hang out on campus was a our indoor facility. We are very fortunate to have the ability to practice indoors at any time of the year. As for advice that I would give to current players is to appreciate the opportunities you are given by being a part of this team. We are very fortunate to play and represent an unbelievable University. We are also very lucky to have an unbelievable support group from a great coach, teammates, and boosters, that make everything you do possible. When your playing time is over at BGSU you will look back and realize how lucky you were to travel and play the places you have. Make sure to take the time to thank everyone you can as relationships will take you far after your days at BGSU. Go Falcons! Torey Brummett, 12
