Coach Jayson Iversen's Season Outlook
Chase Aldrich is poised to have a breakout season as a junior with two years of varsity experience. He will lead a team with limited experience at the varsity level. Early in the season our team will most likely struggle to find the top 10 at invites; however, there is enough talent and skill to make decent progress throughout the season, which may propel us into the top 5 at conference, and allow us to be competitive in other late season duals and invites.
I expect Olson and Thorson to be our number two and three golfers, and by the end of the season score consistently in the 90’s. Rounding out the varsity could be junior Brett Greenfield, sophomores Braden Harris and Joe Scanlon, and possibly freshman Hayden Griego, who has put in a lot of time over the last two summers.
We have a lot of inexperience, and it will take smart, calculated play in order for our players to score well. At this point, Chase is the only player that can afford to be overly aggressive on the course. The rest of the team is going to have to focus on the finer details in course management, and around the green.
