Golf The Salina South golf team com- pleted another great and exciting season. The Cougars won the Salina and Hutchinson Invitationals, the two largest tournaments in the state. The also defeated Central in a dual meet. Other victories include the McPherson Invitational, the Newton Invitational, and the Regional cham- pionship. Four year lettermen Steve Brown and Bob Kennedy joined three year lettermen Ron Dawson and John Norton on a 4-man team that did not finish worse than third in any tourna- ment. Brown, Kennedy, and Dawson played excellent all year and quali- fied for the State tournament for the third straight year. Norton filled the fourth spot and qualified for State for the first time. The two man team had different players playing almost every touma- ment with Randy Syring, Stan Eddy, Bruce Johnson, Scott Smolich, and Scott Sloan all playing in at least two tournaments. Sloan and Eddy quali- fied for the Regional tournament and surprised most people by winning the 2-man title and qualifying for the State toumament. South found an overabundance of trouble at the State tournament as the 2-man finished eighth and the 4- man team disappointingly finished second again behind Central. Steve Brownis tying for first medalist was the one bright spot for South in the State tournament. Even with the disappointing finish South had the most successful season in it's short history and even though half the team is graduating Coach Kindlesparger will put his masterful coaching to work and again field a powerful team next year. golf
