Nighthawks Boys' Golf Ignites Season with Hot Start and Rising Stars
The boys' golf team has already gotten off to a hot start, competing in seven matches before the first day of school. The Nighthawks faced some great competition on August 4 at the Madeira Invitational. Senior Evan Ross scored an 82 to finish T-11 out of 75 golfers, which included a back-nine score of 39. Sophomore Ray Chen shot a personal best at the varsity level with a 99. Ross will be a standout for the Nighthawks this year. Last season, he averaged a 41, the third best for the team. Both Ross and Chen finished in the top 25 MVC individual leaders last season.
The team graduated four seniors last year, including MVC Boys Golfer of the Year, Ethan Argus. This season will be an opportunity for several golfers to prove what they can do at the varsity level. The boys will compete in 15 matches this year, including the MVC Championship on August 16 and September 10.
