Outlook
Rookie golf coach Bill Sproule expects his Husky squad, who
went 6-3 last season, to be one of the top three or four teams in the
conference.
"Our il')'lmediate concern," says Sproule, "is to replace four of
our top golfers from last year."
Captain Steve Schultz is expected to at least partially fill the void
left by graduation. The senior three-year letterman was an AllAmerican at Towanda High School and has consistently scored
low for the Huskies.
Bil I McGinnis sports a handicap of six, which is second onl, to
Schultz's two handicap. Other upperclassmen hoping to claim the
top spots are Larry Ebeling, Bob Emert, Mike Keech, Pete
Sobrinsky, and Greg Zahour.
"On any given day, each of these players are capable of being a
medalist," says Sproule. "Of course the key to our success will beto
have them all scoring consistently low." Sproule is also happy to
have a good crop of freshmen to incorporate into the team. "We
have some very promising newcomers who should all see action
this year," states the new coach .
Steve Reich, Mike Everson, Jon Robinson, Jim Lawler, and Tom
Reagan all have the potential to develop into leaders on the course.
"With the way we set up qualifying rounds for each match's lineup, we force each player to get better," says Sproule. "We feel we
will have a good team this year so we have expanded our schedule
to include a larger quantity of and better quality matches.

Head Coach
Bill Sproule enters his first
year at the helm for the
Huskies. He has been a
member of the BSC Health and
Physical Education staff since
1969 and has taught golf
classes for the past ten years at
the school. He was also a
member of the Cherokee Golf
League for five years (1975-80)
and was chairman in 1977.
Sproule, a former outstanding football player on the 1959
and 1960 Syracuse teams that
performed in the Orange and Cotton Bowls, he was BSC's head
football coach from 1971 to 1975. Since that time the Coalsdale
native had been directing the school's intramural program until
1979.
Sproule earned his Phd. in Physical Education at Penn State
University in May, 1982.
Last year's head man, Bob Reeder, will return this season to
assist Sproule.
