Spring sports preview: Golf
Head Coach: Dom Mingione
Last Years Record: 9-12
Key Returnees: Will Gallagher (Sr.), Calvin Ralph (Sr.) Rob Carcich (Sr.), Tyler Farrell (Sr.), Kevin Smith (Jr.), Brian Sumereau (Jr.), Henry Tipping (So.), Tim Gallagher (So.)
Key Newcomers: Gerry Cotugno (So.), Logan Harms (Jr.)
Strengths: This year, the golf team has a lot of experience and leadership. With four seniors at the helm of the team, the four of the six scores that the team counts in matches should come from Gallagher, Ralph, Carcich and Farrell.
Areas of improvement: The team needs to be able to compete and be able to focus through all 9 holes, which is very difficult to do when dealing with common time constraints and weather conditions.
Outlook: The Pascack Valley golf team would like to improve from its 9-12 record from last year. The team has a whole has more experience and can compete at a higher level than they were last year. The team’s goal is to get over .600 this season, win the league and qualify for states.
Coach’s Comment: “We play in a very tough division. Since we were 9-12 last year, we should be able to be a little bit above .500, and if we play reasonably well, we might be able to play over .600 and that would qualify us for the state tournament, which is not easy to do.”
