The season has come and gone. It feels as if we just began our season and it is already over. The men finished up their season this past weekend at Thunder Hills Country Club in Peosta, IA. It was a tough weekend as they played 54 holes in 2 days. During the weekend, we played to our seasonal average but were bettered by 6 schools in the end. The Beavers took 7th overall but this was a great learning experience for many as we have young team. Although we did not place where we would have liked, I would give this season a great overview as many learned what it will take to play at the next level and what we will need to work on for the upcoming seasons. It is my hope as a coach that the players understand what it is they need to work on so we can continue to lower our averages and play our best golf. No matter where we end up in the conference standings, if we play our best golf that is all a coach can ask for. We are working towards controlling what we can and not focus on the external non-controllable factors.
As for the women's season, they have been done for a couple of weeks now. They put in a lot of work this spring and it showed in their final event. Again, as we may not have placed high, it was a great way for us to finish up the year! We have had many success throughout the year with low individual scores and working to lower our team scores each day. We have some solid recruits coming in that will help us continue on with what we have done and continue to work hard to play our best golf.
It is important to me as a coach to not look to far in depth with the different places we finish but instead I want my players to focus on the positives, learn the game, and continue to prepare themselves for their futures. We utilize many values that will be useful for the long term and not only in the game of golf. Along with this, we want to have fun with the game. It is a great pleasure to work with such great and motivated individuals and I look forward to what the future brings.
Go Beavers!
