The 2019 NHS Golf season is underway and the Lions have taken a fast start. Last year, the Lions rolled through BAL’s and took districts by storm. A couple players won districts and it was a very successful season under first-year head coach Michael Menz.
This year, with the season almost over, the Lions currently hold a 7-2 record with both losses coming from Holy Ghost. With the help from Kyle Sullivan, Liam Griffiths, Evan Menz, and freshman underdog Nate Wisemnan, the Lions seem unbeatable. Recently, these four players successfully made the cut at BAL and will play in the districts on Oct. 7. A fifth player will also be joining them, William Kelley. The Lions won the BALs and the following week claimed districts, but lost their streak at regionals. The 2019 NHS golf season was a successful regardless of losing in regionals.
The future looks very bright for the Lions with juniors Kyle Sullivan, Evan Menz, and Liam Griffiths returning along with the debut of freshman Nate Wisemnan. These four players will strive to keep the Golf program in shape and hopefully keep up the mantiality up next year.
