Coached by Lisbon's Mr. Mike Kleins- mith, nine Mount Vernon girls and one Lisbon girl set their goals to have a winning season and to improve their scores. Junior Jennifer Clark stated, We be- came better golfers this year because we knew more about the sport. The high point of the season was that the girls were winning more meets than ever before. Their low point was the conference meet, but as Jennifer Clark put it, This year we began to really feel competitive. Mount Vernons Boys' Golf team this year had an abundance of young men competing to be part of the team. The reason for so many participants is hard to find, but according to the slice king , senior Pat Gevock, l joined to be able to participate in a sport I like, and to spend some time out of doors. Also, it's a sport where I donft have to sweat to death and puke my guts out after it's over. The top three varsity spots were usual- ly filled by Junior Todd Lehr, and Sophomores Chris McVay and Jeff Meeker. Nick Gevock, James Drahos, . Mike Svatosch, and Todd Neal com- peted in a continual dog fight for the remaining two varsity spots. mise k,,, v vm Carter White chips onto the green. 4 L I 89
