The Burris Boys Golf Team kicked off their season this week on Tuesday, April 12.
The team consists of only five golfers. The team hopes to pull together a good season even though the team is lacking in numbers. The team participated in three matches this weak one on Tuesday and the following on Thursday. Results were relatively good as a team but could have been better from the individual stance.
The boys team consists of only juniors and seniors this year and only have just enough to make a five-man squad.
Jimmy Tuttle, an Indiana Academy student, is the only senior on the team and is looking to play well again at the two spot after he went to regional’s individually last year. Also from the Indiana Academy is Jin Yooh, who transferred from Plainfield High School. Jin is currently playing the four spot on the team and is hoping to contribute to the team in a positive manner. Alex Phipps, a Burris student, is the number one golfer on the boys team and is hoping to have a good team year as well as continuing to carry on the Burris name in the individuals. Derek Packard, a Burris Junior, has obtained the three spot and wishes to just make the best of the year. Frank Okrup, another Burris Junior, will be golfing at the five spot on varsity.
In the boys first meet this year at Memorial golf course in New Castle, Indiana, the boys took on Liberty Christian and Blue River.
