Everyone shot a few strokes higher then usual. It was their first time on this course. There is lots of sand and lots of water. Hopefully next time they will know what to expect and they will know what the hardest hole is and how to play it. |
Hopefully we can get her (Rhoads) more consistent with the irons and try to eliminate some of those strokes that kill a round. |
I don't want to push the eighth graders too much because I know how much golf is a mental game and there can be a lot of pressure. I want to make this experience positive - I want them on the team four years from now. |
I was happy with our eighth graders. They have never competed in a match like this. I am sure it was a little intimidating for them. It was a learning experience. |
Maybe I had a little higher expectations. It's kind of hard sometimes when you expect more girls to go out since we are a bigger school. |
My hope is to build and keep having the numbers grow. Their experience will grow and they will want to golf during the summer. The more they golf during the summer the better they will be. |
You can't have too high of expectations when a player is just learning. |
