WISSAHICKON GOLF PREVIEW

Coach:  John Shapcott (3^rd year)

Assistant coaches:  Paul Berry & Jesse Hackett

Last year’s record:  12-2 SOL/overall

Notable losses:  Jake Labroli

Key returners:  Greg Welsh (Sr.), Jacob Kang (Sr.), Noah Harrington (Jr.), Matt Graeff (Jr.), Phil James (Jr.), Thomas Clements (Jr.)

Others to watch:  Andrea Mazurek (Sr.), David Kovacs (Sr.), Noah Twersky (Jr.), Cooper McMasters (Jr.)

Strengths/Question Marks:  Overall a very deep team this year/Getting consistent scoring.

Outlook:  “Our outlook for this year is to take the next step as a team and play for the District One title. Last year we had eight golfers qualify for the SOL Championships and we hope to do the same this year. We’re lucky to have a very deep team, but for us to be successful, we need to have consistent scoring from the top to bottom of our lineup. Senior captain Greg Welsh along with juniors Noah Harrington and Matt Graeff were the top scorers from last year’s team; all had very nice summers playing local golf events, which we hope translates to a good high school season. Senior Jacob Kang and juniors Phil James and Thomas Clements round out our returning lettermen from last year. All three look to improve on their scoring from last year. Seniors Andrea Mazurek and David Kovacs together with juniors Noah Twersky and Cooper McMasters appear to be competing for the final spots on the team.”
