  • May 3, 2000 SPORTS 23 Men's Golf Shows Improvement, Excited about the Future A Season to Remember by David Bartholomew Asst. Sports Editor It was the best of times; it was the worst of times. It was a dark and stormy season. A shot rang out. It was from Bryan Sangid's driver. All kidding aside, WCU men's golf experienced an up and down year. They showed promise of competing and also fell on hard times. "We never got everyone playing their best game. That had good and bad points to it. On the positive side, everyone was important for us as different times. There was not one player who didn't contribute. On the negative side, if we had gotten the best game out of everyone we could have scared some people," head coach Johnny Wike said. The Catamounts did improve on their Southern Conference Tournament from the previous year, finishing three places higher this season. Fortunately for the Catamount golf team, youth is on their side. Only one senior departs out of the top six golfers.Brad Hawkins leaves Western Carolina after giving the Catamounts four years of solid golf. "He's a class act, on and of the green," Wike said, "He's a good citizen and one of our hardest workers." Brad's game may be leaving Cullowhee, but his influence is not. The Greer, SC na tive has been instrumental in bringing a top recruit from Greer next year. "He comes from one of the top high schools in the region, and getting him was a key in recruiting that area," Wike said. The Catamounts return Sophomore Brain Sangid. Sangid is from Johnson City, TN and will be a big part of the team's future nucleus. Sangid led the Catamounts with a stroke average of 76.4 per round. Along with Sangid, other returnees are Jason Sugg, Greg Lewis, Lee Cline, Clint Johnson, Mark Lieichtnam, and Andy Humble. The Catamounts also have several good recruits that are sure to be pieces of the puzzle. Wike said, 'The youngsters may play or they may not, but they will be sure to put some pressure on the upperclassmen." Wike was WCU's first men's golf coach when the school reinstated the program in 1969 after a lapse of two decades. He had to relinquish his golf coaching duties in 1971 due to the increased demands of his football coaching staff duties. "I tend to look at the positive, and this season we have improved," Wike commented, "Our goal is to compete, before you can win you must compete and we took some big steps towards that in 2000." The program does appear to be headed in the right direction. A new chapter in Catamount golf is waiting to be written. Last Minute Productions Presents', SPUING FLING 2000 STROKE 9 WHEN: MAY 5 WHERE: UC LAWN TIME: 4:30 P.M. ADMISSION:....1 REE by Daniel Hooker Sports Editor Western Carolina Lady Catamount golf head coach Steve Lott summed up the 1999- 2000 golf season in two words: Recognition and respect. Both were gained by the contributions of each of the 10 team members. Both were a long time in coming, but both are well deserved. "All of a sudden we're getting better, and we're now getting invited to tournaments that we didn't normally get asked to come to," said Lott. "A lot of college golf is the caliber of teams you play, and by our play, we're getting recognized and getting the respect." As a team, WCU women's golf finished second twice in October in the Satellites Direct Great Smoky Women's Intercollegiate, which it hosted, and at Eastern Illinois. The team won its first event ever at the High Hampton three-team match back in March. Lott stated, however, that the sixth-place finish in the Southern Conference tournament earned them the most respect. "Our play in the conference tournament was big; for the first time we were a competitive team," said Lott. Other team accomplishments from this season include shooting the lowest individual and team 18-hole, 36-hole, and 54-hole tournaments. The team also improved their average round average from 351 strokes to a 331 average. A large portion of the reason for the success this season stems from the two seniors, Jessica Blake and Sarah Parris. Both broke the existing lowest annual scoring average, Parris doing so having to play most of the fall semester with her foot in a cast. "Parris and Blake both had their best years as seniors. They were big. They both broke the low scoring average. We will definitely miss them next year." Shipley was also a vital part of the "big three" for Lott's Cats. "The biggest surprise this season was Suzanne Shipley. She averaged around 88 strokes a round last year and improved to 80 this year." Despite all of the accomplishments on the course for Lott's squad, he was more proud of the accomplishments in the classroom. "The thing I was most proud of was that as a team, we had a 3.365 GPA and we had seven out of 10 team members with a GPA higher than 3.7. Also, getting Sarah Parris as the Female Scholar Athlete was really big for us." The Lady Cats lose two seniors. However, Suzanne Shipley will be returning for her senior year. She will be joined by rising juniors Brook Stillman, Mary Faulk, and Sam Briatico, rising sophomores Shelley Glenister and Mindy Kreider, and incoming freshmen Kristen Jarman and Rebecca Twiner. .^ TTtUATlY Hours for Summer 2000 Monday, May IS* to Sunday, June 4th Monday-Thursday Friday Weekends 8:00 a.m,-8:00 p.m. 8:00 a.m.-6:00 p.m. Closed Monday, June S's' to Friday, August 11* Standard Summer Hours Standard Summer Hours Monday-Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday 8:00 a^rri.-Mid ■ 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 [0:00 a.m. to 5:00 0,111,10,10:0 Saturday, August 12* to Monday, August 21 <h Monday-Friday Weekends 8:00 a.m.-5:G0 p.m. Closed Fall Semester 2000 Tuesday, August 22 Resume Fall Semester Hours
