Kirk Utecht is the head coach and Dameien Cornell is the assistant coach.

Moderating weather conditions have allowed the Suprior High School golf team to begin preparations for the upcoming 2022 season. Kirk Utecht, head coach and Super ior Country Club superintendent, has the players working on form. The course was recently reopened to play after the sprinkler system was started and the course watered. The extended drought conditions had led to the closure of ther course.

Unlike last year, there will be no girls playing as they formed their own team. Last season there were not enough girl golfers to form a team. Under NSAA rules they were allowed to compete with the boys team. They competed on an equal basis as far as scoring was concerned.They earned a trip to the state tournament for their efforts

The boys team features six players: Ashton Grassman, Tate Streit, Henry Grijava, Carsyn Koeing, Aaron Allgood and Taygun Rothchild. Ayron Grassman serves as the student manager.

Utecht sees a lot of potential for the team. He looks for the players to develop and hone their skills.

The team opens their season Tuesday, March 22, with a triangular match at Geneva hosted by Fillmore Central High School.
