Cook to UW: Four-time State 3A champ to play college golf for Cowgirls

In less than a year, Erika Cook overcame a car crash, won a fourth state title and signed a generous offer to play golf for the University of Wyoming.
Cook was drawn to the school because of the coach.
“I got to know her a lot this year,” she said. “The offer, it was just, it made the most sense.”
Cook is excited for her freshman year. She is looking forward to traveling to play golf in warmer places than Wyoming and experiencing another level of competition. The other school she was considering in the end was the University of Texas at Austin, but she wanted to be closer to home and go to the same school as her sister.
So far, she loves the team. Although her freshman year will be a whole ‘nuther ball game, Cook is not intimidated to enter her collegiate career as a green newbie to collegiate sports. So far, she loves her future teammates and coach.
