Swinging on the Green R by Kerry Lupro oughs and greens, woods and irons, yards and inches, strength and finesse, agony and ecstasy. lt is a game where the opponents live just as much inside you as they do around you. A game where you're only as good as your last shot. It is the game of golf. Where stroke after stroke, hole after hole, round after round, pressure masquerades as relaxa- tion. To those who thrive on it, the striv- ing can be summed up in one word, consistency. The word consistency describes SMHS'-86-87 Varsity Golf team and golfers like Mark Nichols and Scott Kamachi kept the team in good standings. 1 18 Varsity Golf 1. Mark Nichols lines up for a shot.

One of their secrets was to encourage each other. They never gave up when things looked bad. One sprinter commented, All anyone can ask for is that we do our best and that's what we do. The team had some new coaches, in- cluding head coach Will Cain. He has a very positive attitude and he passed it on to the students. With this attitude the team will probably be a threat to other teams in the league next year. With such great coaches and athletes it's no wonder .the track team had such a good SGSSOD.

'The sound of the golfer's voice carries across the broad expanse of the course. With a swishing sound the driver connects with the small, white ball. Like a rocket, it is propelled towards the green. With a smile, the golfer rests his club upon his shoulder and strolls down the fairway. The JV golf team attack- ed the course that was fraught with hazards like sand traps. The team was able to overcome such handicaps to enjoy a fine season. The game of golf is interesting. It has been described by many students of the game as frustrating, challenging, and pro- bably one of the most difficult sports to master. Golf is unique in the fact that you do not want to score a lot of points. A golfer tries to use the least number of strokes possible. Golf is every bit as demanding as any other sport. Mental awareness is a must. That is probably what defeats most golfers when they enter tournament pIay. 1. Scott Kamachi after a great hit. Oops, hit a car! Junior Varsity Golf 119
