CEDAR RAPIDS ? A little under one year removed from a state appearance, ?Xavier?s boys? golfer team has high hopes and expectations to further its success by winning the state championship.
?We have to have strong team chemistry to make it to state again,? senior Matt Junge said.
One way the team builds team chemistry is by participating in events outside of meets and practices.
?On meet days, to stay focused and energized, the team eats at the Spring House restaurant,? senior Ben Sagers said. ?On our way to meets, we listen to relaxing music to calm our nerves.?
The Saints were 34-17 heading into this week and ranked eight in Class 4A. Junge is ranked fourth in the state individually.
?In my seven years as the golf head coach, I have never had someone ranked so high,? Tim O?Brien, head golf coach, said.
The Saints participated in the Mississippi Valley Conference Super Meet at Airport National, finishing with a score of 263 and in fourth place out of 14.
