Monday marked the first of two days of varsity men's golf try-outs. Monday was a very windy day, not very condusive to golf. The average wind speed was 20 m.p.h. with gusts of up to 35 m.p.h. I shot a 48, which is ok. Tuesday was much better, less windy and a little warmer. But, what doesn't make sense is that I shot a 49 on the more golf friendly day. I, of course, made the team. I must say though that the freshmen who tried out, aren't the greatest players in the world. In fact, they sort of, stink.
In total 11 people tried-out. David Shaaf was a 12th player that could not try-out due to the fact that he is a part of the state playoff basketball team. Eight people are on the team, including Shaaf, only 3 of which that were on the team last year; Austin Coehher ( or something like that), David Shaff and Me. Four of the other five are freshmen, and Derek Hoyle--who couldn't play on the team last year because he wasn't moved to Cuthbertson, he transferred here.
On a individual level I feel good about this season, but as a team I am not as optimistic. I am going to strive to do my best and make the regional tournament at the end of the season.
Congratulations on making the team. I need people to take photos at the matches. Do you know parents or students who could take pictures?
ReplyDeleteWhy all these freshmen trying out?
You're getting too carried away with commas--you're putting commas everywhere!
Mrs. Schaaf or Coach Allen would probably do it. Four of the players last year are seniors now and they are playing other sports in college so they have to stay in shape and out of harms way because they have scholarships.
