Boys Golf, Week 1

By Perry Meas, staff writer

Boy\’s Golf began this week on March 1st, starting with the Ayala Tournament in Chino Hills. The Barons played well, but failed to place among the top of the many schools of Orange County.

Soon after, Boy\’s Varsity went up against Lakewood High at Skylinks Golf Course on Tuesday and at Old Ranch on Thursday, defeating the opposing team twice through their first week.

With a starting record of 2-0 wins, Boy\’s Varsity remains optimistic that this season will be the best yet and feel ready to challenge University High at Strawberry Farms on Monday, March 8th.

Junior Varsity however, was not as successful, with 2 loses and zero wins. The Barons battled Canyon High on Tuesday and Wednesday, and unfortunately the Barons fought hard to the finish, narrowing the scores to close margins. Yet in the end, Canyon proved to be victorious against FV on both occasions.

This year\’s varsity team line up includes old faces such as Captains Loren Tengan (\’10) and Mitchel Char (\’10), Jake Christy (\’10), and Justin Smith (\’11), as well as new players on both Varsity and JV: Andre Vu (\’13), Willy Chen (\’13), Kevin Kato (\’13), and Jordan Char (\’13).

Both Coach Keyser and Coach Wilton assure that this year\’s team, both JV and Varsity, will easily surpass earlier seasons, earning the Barons a place in the best of the Sunset League. With such a strong start on behalf of Boy\’s Varsity, the Barons will undoubtedly find success in the coming weeks.
