Quotes and notes from the coach
Crestline golf coach Steve Garberich mentioned the following in an email: “(Hunter) Trent received a medal for his performance at the Buckeye Central Invite. His 42 on the back nine at the event was the lowest nine-hole score of his career and the lowest by a Bulldog golfer in three seasons.” Garberich continues, “All of the golfers have been putting in a lot extra time practicing. They are all eager to learn and to get better. Golf is a very hard game to master and I am very proud of these six for the effort that they have shown thus far.”
