Golf Team from Bret Harte Gears Up for a Big Season!
Located in the scenic town of Angels Camp, Bret Harte High School’s golf team is stepping onto the green with big aspirations this season. As they chase their fourth consecutive Mother Lode League championship, all eyes are on them, especially with hopes of claiming a section title that hasn’t been theirs since 2017.
Star Players on the Comeback Trail
The excitement around the Bullfrogs this year is palpable, particularly with the return of some impressive players. Leading the charge is senior Eli Weidmann, who has snagged the title of Mother Lode League’s Most Valuable Player not once, but twice! Alongside him are senior Jefferson Porras and junior Peyton Heermance, both of whom are looking to elevate their game this season. Porras has been grinding away in the offseason, showing remarkable improvement, which definitely adds depth to the team.
A Special Opportunity Awaits
With a solid squad comprising 18 players, head coach Cody Dragomanovich is optimistic about what lies ahead. After last season, where the team faced some challenges with complacency, they are ready to turn things around and make the most out of this year. The Bullfrogs embarked on a pre-season scrimmage against Ripon, where they got a taste of some tough competition. While it may not have been an easy outing, it has only fueled their desire to practice harder and strategize better.
New Challenges on the Horizon
This season, the Mother Lode League has seen some realignment, which means facing off against fresh competition from schools like Riverbank, Big Valley Christian, and Linden. As they get ready to hit new courses this year, many players will be tackling unfamiliar greens, making every hole a fresh adventure. Thankfully, next time they hear someone joking around, it may not be just Troy Dragomanovich, the team’s well-known comedian who graduated last year. The younger players have proven they can bring the laughs and keep morale high.
Building for the Future While Winning Now
Last season saw Bret Harte share the championship title with Calaveras, proving their mettle in the league. This year, the goal is to focus on winning without the weight of defending a title hanging over them. The team can look forward to their league opener on March 13, when they’ll take on the Linden Lions at the beautiful Greenhorn Creek Resort in Angels Camp. The full schedule features other competitive matches against schools like Calaveras and Riverbank, ensuring an action-packed season filled with excitement and potential.
In Conclusion
As Bret Harte heads into this ambitious season, the community is buzzing with enthusiasm. With strong returners and a robust roster, there’s a sense of hope and determination in the air—making it a thrilling time for fans of the Bullfrogs. Whether turning a putt or sharing a laugh, it looks like this year could truly be something special for Bret Harte golf. Keep an eye on this team; they might just surprise everyone and rise to the top yet again!
