Jamestown (CSi) University of Jamestown head golf coach Dean Kraft announces the signing of Jamestown’s Austin Rene, who will join the Jimmies in the fall of 2016.
As a junior in 2015, Rene was the highest Blue Jay finisher in seven of eight regular season meets and finished tied for 15th at the state meet. He finished third at the state meet as a sophomore.
Kraft says, “Austin has been one of the top North Dakota Class A golfers for the past few seasons. I’m looking forward to continuing my coaching relationship with Austin. Having coached him for five of his six seasons in high school, we have developed a great working relationship. Austin brings the ability to go low. His game is explosive and I think he has just scratched the surface of his potential.”
Rene will join former JHS teammate Brandon Stahlhut as a member of the Jimmie golf family.
The son of Dawn and Mike Rene, Austin also played hockey at JHS and is a member of the National Honor Society.
