Wastyn qualifies for state
by Jerry Jewitt
After Maine West Golf team was eliminated in the Sectional meet, individual Scott Wastyn went on to the State Tournament.
"It was tough," stated Wastyn, "the first day I had to battle 30 mph. gusts. However, the earlier golfers played in much better weather which gave them a great edge. The second day I did not have to struggle against the elements but could not bring my score up enough after the previous day to let me go any further in the competition."
The golf team wound up its season with a 7-4 record in regular competition play. September 30, Maine West went to Maine East and lost with Bob Koehler low scorer for the Warriors at 39 in 9 holes. On October 1, West hosted Wheeling and won. Koehler again had a low 39.
