While Paschal has a winning volleyball team and a football team on the rise, people tend to forget about some of our other sports like swim and golf. Golf is among the “under-appreciated” sports here at Paschal, and in this piece, they are going to be highlighted.

     Coach Mark Furtick has been the head coach of the golf team at Paschal for 18 years with Jay Stuckey as the assistant coach. In his time here, the golf team has been successful and is continuing to be.

    “It is hard to compare what we do with the larger sports of football, baseball, basketball, or soccer,” Furtick says, explaining why he feels that golf is not under-appreciated.

    “Each of those sports involve fans sitting in bleachers cheering, the only fans our golfers see during a 5-hour round of tournament play will be their parents or coaches.”

    While golf is sometimes considered a “lonely” sport, Furtick says that they try to keep practices fun. The players regularly compete against each other to keep each other motivated.

    The golf team’s ultimate goal is to compete in the State Tournament, which takes a lot of hard work, but Furtick says that he likes the team’s chances of making it.

    For the players, Mondays and Fridays consist of sprints, conditioning, and core workouts and Tuesdays through Thursdays are practice on the golf course. In addition to that, they take advantage of optional weight room and hitting room practices before school.

    “When you watch athletes put up this kind of effort and commitment for an entire year, you can’t help but be confident [in their abilities].”
