GOLF
1978

OUTLOOK
Although a number of veterans are returning,
improvement on last season's 7-4 record will be
difficult as six of the eight matches will be on the
road.
Mark Pringle, Allen Ruffner, George Hamlen,
and Dave Cichan are the returning players who
will be counted on heavily this year, but new head
coach Bob Reeder is also expecting some new
faces to cha Ilenge the above for some of the
starting positions.
As a basic strategy for success, Reeder is
relying on substantial improvement from the
returning players who seem to have a greater
golfing potential than they demonstrated fast
season.

HEAD COACH
Robert Reeder, an associate professor in the
Anthropology Department
of Bloomsburg State College takes over this spring
as head golf coach replacing
Michael Herbert who has
moved to assistant tennis
coach.
Reeder's golf experience
is evident from his championship flight performances at nearby Frosty
Valley Country Club where he won two
tournaments last year. Prior to joining Frosty
Valley, he was a low handicapper as a member of
the Berwick Golf Club.
Before joining the BSC faculty in 1968, Reeder
spent a year teaching at Lehigh University. He
previously taught at Grove City College and
Western Kentucky University. He earned both his
bachelor's and master's degrees at the
Pennsylvania State University. In addition,
Reeder has earned a Master of Arts degree in
anthropology from the University of Colorado.
Reeder is a member of the American
Anthropology Association and the American
Sociological Association. He is married to the
former Florence Wynne of Canton, Pennsylvania
and has three children-Kathy, age 17, Robbie,
age 15, and Laurie, age 13.
