With hearts pounding, hands shaking and adrenaline flowing, the golf team will return to action at the St. Bonaventure Invitational on Sept. 23.
Great leadership is often hard to put into place on sports teams. The golfers are coming back from a disappointing close to last year’s season, finishing out as last place in last April’s Ivy League championships. While they went in with high hopes for a possible victory over league competitors like Yale and Dartmouth, the team’s performance did not live up to the hype as less than half of the field shot under 80 on the last day. By bringing in new talent, like freshman recruit Matt Jaye, Cornell hopes to take the next step as C.U. upperclassmen leaders initiate this year’s new class of golfers.
