Gilman 21, Boys' Latin 0

Boys' Latin suffered a shut-out loss against perennial conference contenders, Gilman - dropping all twenty-one points the (Gilman) Greyhounds.

But a 21-0 score didn't reflect the attitude and the mentality that the Lakers brought to the table for the competition. Their swings in shape, their minds sharp, and their disciplines set, they faced off with a fire and drive not yet seen during the 2006 season.

Assistant Coach Chad Vaughn, remarking in the aftermath of the competition said "Although the score doesn't reflect it, the team played their best golf of the season today. I'm proud of each and every member of the Laker squad for giving their absolute best on the course today. This team has come very far in 2006. The golf swings that are being displayed now and the shots that this team is hitting, are reflected of drastic improvement. For that, as well as their attitude on the course today, the Lakers should be commended."

Props are exteded to Michael Gallagher for competiting in his first ever match. Mr. Gallagher has worked diligently to improve his game, and has been a member of the Laker squad for three years. His incluion in the line-up against Gilman is reflective of his hard work and stern discipline. The coaches agree that with his positive attitude and strong work ethic, Michael Gallagher will no doubt find his way into the line-up more and more as the season progresses.

The Lakers, now 0-5 for the season, have an up-hill road ahead of them. However, it's not one that will find them quitting If one thing has become apparent from this squad of team members, it this: This Laker Golf Team Does Not Give Up.

With the challenge now set and the tough road positioned in front of them, the Lakers stand ready for the competition to come. As Freshman Gates Blair said following the loss to Gilman, "Boys, I'm tired of losing. I want to taste victory. I want to win!"

A lot of eyes widened when he said that...
