Continued from Page 8 a team. Our goal this year is not to finish last every week. Last year, we lost every contest. This year we are positioned better competitively. Last year was our school’s first time in years to even field a girls’ team and that was an important milestone.

team, he said, is the integrity and spirit the players bring. “At practices, they do a good job of taking care of themselves,” he said. “They actually know the different parts of their games they need to work on and they take the responsibility to work on those areas. It’s easy for players at this age to just focus on how far they can hit the ball. Our kids know they have to work on their touch, chips
and putting and find the time to work on all aspects of their games.” Most of the students out for golf, he said, are because they love the game and want to master its intricacies. “Most of my players come from families who enjoy golf as a leisure or business activity,” Marshall said. “Golf is fast becoming a major part of business; their years on the course will serve them well as they

build their careers.” High School tournaments are nine hole with a solid score on the boys side of high 30s to low 40s as being top finishes and for the girls’ players, a score in the mid-50s will get players into top spots. “Our goals are to work well as a team, focus on our individual games, and practice to win,” Marshall said. “I’m looking forward to a solid season.”
