The 2008 golf team is nearing the end of its season, but some golfers are going on to try to represent Seaholm and make an impact at Districts.
“We’re winning the matches we should be winning, but there are a lot of hard teams out there,” said senior captain Sean Grant.
“It is more difficult this year because we moved up a division and we lost a lot of good seniors who graduated, but we’re still doing well,” said senior captain Evan Frederick.
Though effort was in full swing, everyone’s personal scores seem to be more up and down.
“Personally, my scores fluctuate,” said Frederick. “I shot a thirty-five at Springdale, which is one over, but then another time for example, I’ll shoot a fortythree.”
“I haven’t done too badly. Sometimes I’ll have good days, and sometimes I’ll have bad days,” said sophomore J.C. Wilhelm.
This year’s District team will be made up of senior Sean Grant, sophomores J.C. Willhelm and Cliff Williams, and freshmen Bradley White and Chris Milliken.
The team has dreams of placing at Regionals.
“I think if we all play well we can make it to Regionals,” said Willhelm.
Though there may have been a few let-downs this season, the team sees 2009 with a positive outlook.
“Next year they’ll be really good,” said Grant. “We have a lot of young talent.”
“I think the team will be better. They have a couple of the same good guys coming back,” added Frederick.
One name Frederick mentioned in particular was J.C. Wilhelm, who certainly proved himself as a sophomore on varsity.
Not only does Wilhelm feel assured about next spring, he has high hopes for the distant future as well.
“My senior year will definitely be the best,” he said.
