Experienced golfers search for third NIC crown

By MARK WEINSTEIN Sports Writer This is Rudy Cesco’s 13th season as Wawasee High School’s golf coach. And for the veteran mentor, probably at no other point in his coaching career has he been blessed with such a talented club as the 1984 Warriors. “This must be something most coaches dream about, being able to bring in this many talented players on one team,” said Cesco of this year’s Wawasee golf squad. “I am really looking forward to this year, and hopefully winning the conference for the third straight year.” The Warriors captured their second straight Northern Lakes Conference crown last year, but were defeated by Warsaw during sectional action. Still, Wawasee was able to advance golfers further in state competition before bowing out in the “Sweet Sixteen.” “I'd be very much surprised if we are not ranked in the top 15 in the state beginning this year,” informed Cesco. “We could even make it into the top 10.”

Providing much of the reason for Cesco’s optimism is the return of five lettermen from last year’s successful season. The Warriors finished 13-3 on the season, a mark that could be challenged from this year’s team. Junior Brian Beaty has been looked upon to lead the Warriors through the present campaign. According to Cesco, Beaty presently has the best short game on the team, something Cesco feels is very important in high school golf. With Beaty moving near the top, he should get plenty of help from the other four returning lettermen. Seniors Steve Dunithan, David Schacht and Kim Zurcher will once again prove extremely beneficial on the links in 1984. Even though the upperclassmen will be challenging each other for the top spot on the team, junior Keith Burbank should also blend in well with the squad. Thus, Wawasee’s experience and reserve strength could drive the Warriors closer to a state title. “If everything falls in place for us. I wouldn't be surprised to see

this team get to the state tourney,” informed Cesco. “We have a tough road schedule, but I think this will make us stronger, and making it through the tourney is a strong possibility.” Although Wawasee possesses a strong driving squad, the recent development of some younger players and an improving short game should help the Warriors this season. Juniors Brian Keim and Jay Baumgartner, along with freshman John Nemeth have the talent to insure that the varsity performers don’t get overconfident and lose their desire. “As of right now, I see Keim, Baumgartner and Nemeth playing mostly B-team ball,” said Cesco. “But they do have talent and that should make us a better club.” Along with the young talent possibly pushing the Warriors, another aspect which should help them improve is their rough road schedule. Wawasee opens the season at Elkhart Central before traveling to Elkhart Memorial, South Bend Riley, Homestead and Manchester during the season.

FACTS4FANCIES Information From The National Bowling Council One out of every three men, women and children in the country today bowl*. In addition to the nine million plus league bowlers, there are 60 million casual bowlers who visit thousands of bowling centers nationwide each year—62o million visits this year alone.

“This could be a great year, but I think it hinges on the players' attitudes.” said Cesco. “We have a rough road schedule, and it is always easier to play at home, but the attitude is the key to the season." The Warriors will need to improve if they expect to repeat as NLC champions. “Rochester. Plymouth, Warsaw and Goshen have all improved,” informed Cesco. ' “Warsaw came out of nowhere last year and won the sectional. I just hope we have improved also.” In addition to the regular dual contests on the road. Wawasee will also get involved in four tough invitationals. “Homestead’s invitational will be very tough. Probably eight of the top 15 schools in the state will be there,” said Cesco.

The Warriors will also battle in the LaVille, Lafayette and Wawasee invitationals during the season. “I just hope to win one of our four invitational meets,” said Cesco. Following the challenging road and invitational schedule, Wawasee will gear up for the conference meet at South Bend’s Erskine Golf Course. “Erskine is a great course,” said Cesco of the site of the NLC meet. “It has everything there. It’s narrow, long, great greens, bunkers and traps. It’s a great place to play.” Wawasee’s athletic teams have enjoyed fine success in 1984, but the Warriors’ golf squad has the capability to exceed them all, The Warrior golfers need to keep their heads on straight, and then a state tournament appearance is not out of the question.
