What a year it’s been for Crawford Reeves.

The Eastside High senior capped a memorable season last week by being selected a first-team Rolex Junior All-American by the American Junior Golf Association.

Reeves won his first two AJGA titles this season to accompany his second Blade Junior Classic title. He also qualified for the U.S. Amateur Championship in August and ended the season ranked No. 10 in the AJGA Polo Golf Rankings.

Reeves earned his first national title when he shared medalist honors at the Golf World/Medicus Preseason Junior at Furman University in April.

The next month, he won the Scott Robertson Memorial in Roanoke, Va., outright.

“This was my best season yet. It was very consistent,” Reeves said. “Winning the (Memorial) was the turning point in my season. Knowing that I could go to a national tournament and compete was a big confidence boost for me. That changed my mindset for the rest of the year.”

Reeves will be eligible to compete in AJGA events next year until he enrolls at Clemson University next fall.
