Army retirement two years ago brought on a new challenge. For Shuskey it was time to go back to school and to take a swing at collegiate golf.

Shuskey now a Sophomore on the Lumberjacks golf team. Shuskey didn't play competitive golf in High School but he sharpened his game in the Army when he could even when deployed in Afghanistan.
