BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Indiana head men's golf coach Mike Mayer announced the addition of Bradley Chill Jr. and Taneesh Sirivolu on Wednesday.
Bradley Chill Jr.
Columbia Station, Ohio
Saint Ignatius (Cleveland)
Chill, a two-time All-State player in Ohio, competes for head coaches PJ Myers and Kevin Neitzel at Saint Ignatius High School in Cleveland. He has been named all-district in each of his first three seasons at the prep level and was the 2022 Ohio State Championships runner-up. Saint Ignatius has earned back-to-back state championships. The 2022 squad broke the all-time Boys Division 1 team score record by 15 strokes.
He has earned top-20 results at the 2023 AJGA at Otter Creek (2nd), 2022 AJGA at Penn State (2nd), 2022 AJGA Memorial Junior (3rd), 2021 AJGA Dana at Sylvania Country Club (3rd), 2023 Dye Junior (5th), 2022 Orlando International Amateur (8th), 2022 Boys PGA Junior at Cog Hill (16th), while winning the 2022 Hudson Junior Invitational.
Chill is ranked 94th overall on Junior Golf Scoreboard (50th in his class), 53rd on the Rolex Rankings, and 65th on Golfweek.
He is the son of Brad and Yaroslava Chill. Bradley has a younger sister, Kristina, who plays golf at Magnificat High School. He intends to study finance during his time with the Hoosiers. Chill was born on May 31, 2006.
"Bradley is not only one of the top 2024 recruits out of Ohio, but he is also one of the top recruits in the Midwest and one of the best amateur golfers in the country," Mayer said. "From the first time we saw him play in national junior tournaments we knew we wanted him to become a Hoosier. His game is complete, his resumé is impressive, and his future is incredibly bright. Bradley comes from an outstanding golf family, and he is committed to becoming a great Hoosier collegiate golfer and, after graduation, a great professional golfer."
Taneesh Sirivolu
Orlando, Fla.
Dr. Phillips High School
A four-year letterwinner for head coach Jerry Updike at Dr. Phillips High School, Sirivolu helped guide the Panthers to the 2023 state title in Florida. He won the regional tournament to help propel Dr. Phillips into the state field.
Sirivolu qualified for and played in the 2023 US Junior at Daniel Island Club. He tied for third overall at the 2023 Billy Horschel AJGA, finished fourth at the 2023 Florida Boys Junior, and tied for 12th at the 2023 Bobby Chapman Invitational.
He was named the 2023 Leukemia and Lymphoma Orlando Student Visionary of the Year raising over $28,000 for charity.
Sirivolu is ranked 127th overall on Junior Golf Scoreboard (73rd in his class), 98th on Golfweek, and 113th on the Rolex Rankings.
He is the son of Gopal and Aruna Sirivolu. Taneesh has an older sister, Deepika. He intends to study finance while in Bloomington. Sirivolu was born on March 1, 2006.
"Taneesh has a smile that will light up the room and a game that is as equally impressive," Mayer said. "He is enthusiastic and positive which goes right along with how he plays the game of golf. He had an outstanding summer of junior and amateur golf, and his resumé includes some top finishes around the country including at last year's United State Junior Championship at Daniel Island Club. Taneesh's potential is unlimited, and we are thrilled that he has chosen to become a member of our Hoosier family."
