PAR-FECTION Cold spring weather did not discourage the varsity and frosh- soph golf teams. Beginning in March, every evening was spent on the Mount Prospect Country Club golf course in an effort to learn new skills and to improve basic strokes. This year's team was determined to beat last year's excellent playing record and sixth place rating in the state meet. Mr. Collier coached all of the boys on the basics of golf and inspired a competitive spirit and desire to win meets against other schools. However, only five boys on each level participated during this year's golf season. The winning scores equal the sum of the four lowest team scores. During the season Prospect often boasted record scores. Golfers practiced in the field house while the snow still covered the golf course. 1 QJQQ.. was .sszefs :f Rick Lynch demonstrates the correct stance. i iii!! .......i Prospect Prospect Prospect Prospect Prospect Prospect Prospect Prospect Prospect Prospect Prospect Prospect Prospect Prospect 1964 VARSITY SCORES . . . . 313 Glenbrook South . .. .. 269 Elgin Larkin ..... .. .. 313 Forest View ......309 MaineWest.... .. .. 319 Barrington ... .. .. 319 Arlington ... ..319 Palatine... .. .....,,311 Deerf1eId....... .. .. 303 Glenbrook South .. .. 267 Glenbrook North . ......267 ForestView..... ......316 Deerf1eld...... ......332 MaineWest..... .. .. 303 Glenbrook North GOLF.
