Knowing nothing about golf, Macayla Story, Johnnie Garcia and Nicolas Vallejos gambled on a summer program that ended in an unexpected reward.
Saint Monica Prep students Macayla Story, Johnnie García and Nicolás Vallejo received life-changing scholarships thanks to golf. Story vividly remembers the moment she received the acceptance letter. She was in Palm Springs when her mother called to tell her that a large envelope had arrived. The envelope contained a letter informing her she would be receiving the $125,000 Chick Evans Scholarship, a program supported by the Western Golf Assn.
” Garcia, whose father is Mexican and mother is from Belize, comes from a family that has worked hard to provide him with opportunities. “My mom works with foster kids. She helps assign cases to them. She basically helps them find a suitable home for them, because I know what a family means to me and I know she loves what she does. And my dad basically works with FedEx. He drives to Burbank every day for the whole time there, just working,” Garcia said proudly.
