The Wolves golf team stumbled a bit on April 10 and lost 196-190 to Rochester High.
‘We didn’t play like we should have against Rochester,? Clarkston Coach Larry Sherrill said.
The team’s record is now 1-1 on the season as on April 6 Clarkston defeated Lake Orion 185-207.
‘We played really well as a team that day,? Sherrill said.
Senior Jackie Schram was the Wolves low scorer in both matches, shooting a 42 in Clarkston’s win and a 45 in the loss.
Schram highlights a deep and experienced team on the course for the Wolves this year.
‘My top six players from last year are back this year,? Sherrill said. ‘It’s tremendous that this is (Schram’s) fourth year playing varsity. She’s very experienced, that helps, and she’s a leader on the team.?
Sherrill expects the team to qualify for the state finals again this year, where last year the Wolves finished 11th. He also expects Clarkston to be near the top of the OAA I. Citing teams like Seaholm and Lahser, Sherrill feels the Wolves? league will be one of the toughest in the state.
Clarkston’s match at Westwynde Country Club against Rochester Adams on April 11 finished too late for this edition of The Clarkston News.
Sherrill was not looking forward to the ‘huge traps? and ‘tough greens? the course at Westwynde features.
The Wolves do not dust off the clubs again until April 25 for the Oakland County Tournament.
