You’re looking 👀 at Golf Greatness! 🏌️

Yes indeed, these five young men are not only undefeated, but they also set a school record for the lowest 9-hole round at 144 (4 lowest scores added together) this past week at Man O’ War in GlenRiddle. During that same match, Johnny LaViola and Gavin Lewis shot the lowest and medaled.
🥇🥇⛳️

Next up for this fab five is Districts at River Marsh in Cambridge.

Let’s go Calen Shockley, Lucas Kohut, Johnny LaViola, Gavin Lewis, Lewis Takacs, and coaches Dan Stearman & Mary Miller.
