OF LIFE s the end of the 1987-88 school year comes to a close, there is still a great amount of activity as far as the spring sports are concerned. This year's golf team is certainly no exception. Although the team's success was not spectacular, the season is not quite over. There is really no way for the team to take it all this year,” coach Chon Galle- gos admits. The talent is definitely there, however, the team is just too young. So far the Saint's boast a 9 win — 2 loss record. There biggest accomplishment has been defeating Pioneer twice. However, the team is not in the clear yet. Newark, Santa Cruz, and Willow Glen have all been tough competitors. Number one seated golfer on the team, Gary Nelson com- mented, We have got to beat Gunderson twice in order to advance to the playoffs. I believe we can and will do it. As far as the finals go, well, that's another story. Nelson, a junior, has had a remarkable season as it is. He shot a 37 and a 38 against Pioneer, which is only one and two over the par score. Gary is our 'low man on the totem poll', Coach Galle- gos stated, He is a remarkable talent that will definitely improve next year. This is really kind of a warm-up season for him. Mike Maxin and Eric Cutter are the two other promising juniors on the team. This is the first year that the Saint's team has no seniors playing. Despite the fact that there are no competing seniors, this is one of the largest golf teams the school has ever had. The majority of the team is composed of sophomores' lody Dar- tez, Rob Fisher, Glenn Miller. Eric Chan, Mark Womack, Eric Seiler, and Phil Reily. The only freshman competitor this year is promising young Kevin Brand. By Jan Kopc- zynski. Golf 97
