BIG CAT JACKSON

/in /by

NEW MIDDLETOWN OH- Springfield junior Jackson Ensley, better known on the links as “Big Cat,” is tearing up the fairways and leaving his mark on area golf. With his younger brother Cooper by his side, the Ensley duo is quickly becoming a force to be reckoned with in the local golf scene, pushing each other to new heights and blazing a family path of success.

This season has been nothing short of stellar for Jackson. Riding high after nailing down the medalist spot at sectionals, Ensley’s got all eyes on him as he heads into the postseason. He’s been dominating every green, every bunker, and every hole, and there’s no sign of him letting up anytime soon. With that steady, laser-focused game and an attitude that matches his “Big Cat” nickname, he’s a fierce competitor who takes control of the course from tee to green.

Golf isn’t just a sport for Jackson—it’s in his DNA. His mom was swinging clubs for YSU, so you could say the game runs through his veins. Jackson’s been playing for years and is determined to keep playing for a lifetime, showing that commitment every time he tees it up.

As the leader of Springfield’s program, Ensley’s got the steady hands, the cool head, and the grit to handle all the pressure that comes with being the guy to beat. And with another season still to come, Jackson’s got plenty of time to sharpen his game even more and bring home more accolades for the Tigers.

Watch out—Big Cat’s on the prowl, and he’s not just playing; he’s taking over. The postseason awaits, and Jackson Ensley is ready to pounce.

NEW MIDDLETOWN, OH –  In the latest Springfield Golf Player Profile, fans got an in-depth look at one of the most promising young athletes in the community. Sophomore golfer Cooper Ensley shared insights about his journey, family, and passion for the sport.

Ensley, who started golfing at a very young age, attributes much of his current success and dedication to the unwavering support of his family. “They mean everything to me,” Ensley stated. “My mom and dad and my whole family have always been here since the start.”
The Ensley family’s collective love for golf is evident, with Cooper often competing alongside his brother Jackson. Their supportive dynamic extends to their grandparents, who frequently watch their games despite the nerve-wracking nature of the sport.

As the Springfield Tigers gear up for sectionals this Thursday at Salem Hills, the spotlight remains on Cooper and his impressive gameplay. With a low score of 37 this season and an average score of 42, Ensley has shown consistent improvement and dedication. Notably, he has also managed to outscore his older brother Jackson in one of the matches, a feat he proudly shared.
Looking ahead, Cooper aims to shoot a personal best of 79 at sectionals and hopes Jackson moves on to districts. “I’m ready to go and shoot a good number,” he said confidently. Discussing his experience at Springfield High School, Ensley highlighted the strong sense of community among students and residents. “It’s awesome. Everyone knows each other, and everyone’s supportive,” he remarked.

Ensley, who practices almost daily during the summer, usually at the Lake Club, remains focused on honing his skills. His favorite golf ball is the Titleist Pro V1x, and his favorite course is the Lake Club, where he enjoys unlimited practice opportunities. Cooper’s role model in golf is Bryson DeChambeau, who inspires him with his long drives and strategic approach to the game. As the profile concluded, Ensley reiterated the importance of family and reflected on his journey ahead. “Always maintain that family importance to you,” advised Emily Gorup, affirming the young golfer’s values and dedication. With both individual ambitions and team goals set high, Cooper Ensley is undoubtedly a player to watch in the Springfield Tigers golf squad’s upcoming sectionals and beyond.
