Moving to the Northeast Ohio Conference has helped the golf team as they have gone undefeated in conference play.
Last year the Shaker men’s golf team finished 9-5 and second in the Lake Erie League. This year, the Raiders have already surpassed last year’s links success. Now in the Northeast Ohio Conference’s Lake Division, Shaker won the division and finished 17-2 overall and 10-0 in the NOC. The team finished 10th in the NOC Championship.
The Raiders recorded their lowest score in four years in a win against Bedford Aug. 17. Many of the players recorded their personal best scores during the season.
“The team played excellent,” head coach John Schwartz said. “The record speaks for itself.”
Senior Greg Lanese said that he was definitely expecting a lot of success. Shaker returned six players who knew how to play well, Lanese said.
The Raiders were even with or better than all the teams they played. Lanese said, “We knew we could do it.”
