Ashley Cardwell: Defender of Math and Golfer Extraordinaire

On November 30th, senior mathematics major Ashley Cardwell  successfully defended her thesis over how mathematics can be applied to the game of golf to help explain why uphill putts/shots are "easier" to make as opposed to downhill putts/shots. Ashley (front and center) presented her thesis before a panel of professors including (from left to right): Dr. Carl Rutledge, Dr. Andrew Wells, Dr. Andrei Ghenciu, and Dr. Robert Ferdinand. A member of ECU's varsity golf team, Ashley now looks forward to graduating with full university honors in the Spring of 2013.
