tccutt 6 afr fo pan « .ast Spring, thanks to the efforts of Coach Jack Schles- inger, the Hammond High School golf team got together for the first time in four years. Coach Schlesinger is a former HHS student, and a member of the 1976 golf team. As a result, he has a very good way of work- ing with young golfers. After two months of practice, the team was ready. Armed with self- confidence and a lot of pride, the team went on to have an almost undefeated season (That is they only defeated one team.) In spite of that fact, the team thought those were the best three months of the year. Look- ing out for next year, they have three returning Varsity players that are very determined, and with the coaching of Mr. Schles- inger, things are looking very good.
