Getting into the Swing of Things Leading the 1987 golf season, Jason Walters qualified for All-Confen ence second team. Walters led Poudre's team with an average of 82.0 shots per round. Contributions were also made by three year letter- man Blaine Spruill. Coach Ed Tel- lez names Spruill as our second strength. Also impressive was Matt O'Dell who was considered the most improved player of the season. Too often, the team was missing certain varsity members at times when their points were crucial. A member of the IV team would have to move up to play varsity and the total team points would therefore be higher than normal. As a whole, the season was not as successful as would be desired, but the team did improve with every match. A pos- sible symbol of future Poudre golf seasons occured when C,oachbTellez made a hole-in-one on ,theieighth hole of the Collindale golf course.
