The team was around for four or five years, then fell by the wayside. The team went to the region meets and even went to State in St. George and Provo, Utah. Now there is interest in rebuilding the golf program at Whitehorse High School with the same art teacher. About 20 boys and two girls came out for the practices. Unfortunately only five can compete in the upcoming golf matches in Moab on Monday and Green River on Tuesday. The word is that every week there will be a playoff mid the top five players will travel to five golf matches, not counting the two this week. In other words, golfers at Whitehorse can say, I missed the cut this week, but Fll try next week to make the traveling team. Traveling this week is Petheric Tapaha, Travis Whaley, Craig Collins, Rolando Whitehorse, and Donovan Deal. Next week the Raiders will travel to Manti, Utah to play at the Palisade Golf Course. Other stops will be in Vernal, Roosevelt, Morgan, and April 30 is the Region 16 Tbuma-meat Wasatch Golf Course in Midway, Utah. Teams that qualify will head to Moab for nt the State Tburnament Coach Leo Platero will be busy teaching golf rules, explaining the dress code, collecting clubs and bags and watching golf videos with the team and teaching fundamentals. We are going to have fun, learn the game df golf. Three of the boys already know how to golf, said Coach Platero. Region 16 teams include Green River, Rich, Altamont, Manila and Whitehorse.
