Daniel Harris - Men's Golf

Q: Favorite movie?
A: The Departed.

Q: Favorite Boston Restaurant?
A: The Barking Crab.

Q: Why did you choose to attend Newbury?
A: I was very interested in the hotel and restaurant industry. My needs were met by small class sizes, and the extra effort put forth by the professors of the college. I needed a small college where I could be a successful student, and become a successful adult.

Q: What other activities are you involved in at Newbury?
A: I am involved in the Residence Life department. I am a second year Resident Assistant, and I play for the Newbury golf team. Being a resident assistant allows me the opportunity to be a leader, and help others become leaders within the Newbury community.

Q: What is your best golf memory so far?
A: My best golf memory so far was at the championship tournament last year I shot my best score of 89. At that time I was still learning how to control my game. So shooting under 90 was a great feeling.

Q: Why do you play golf?
A: Golf is a sport that helps me focus, and at the same time relax and release all the stress that I have. I intend on continuing to play golf and learn to play even better. Golf is a sport that you can play forever.

Q: What are your goals for the 2010 season?
A: My goals for the 2010 season are to help lead the golf team to more victories. I would like for us to become a team that other teams see on their schedules and know that they have a good match coming up.

Q: What are your future career ambitions?
A: When you have ambitions, you need to dream big. I enjoyed working on resorts for the past few summers. Making sure guests have everything they need, and not having to leave the resort for an amenity is very important in keeping your guest happy, and most of all, returning to your property. I would like to own/operate a resort just like that.

Q: What is your favorite sports quote?
A: "Success isn't something that just happens - success is learned, success is practiced and then it is shared." --  Sparky Anderson
