Jayhawks open golf schedule
The Kansas golf team will open the 1970 season today in a two-day meet in Stillwater. Last year's squad finished a distant seventh in this meet but coach Wilbur Norton is optimistic in his outlook for this year.
"All of these guys are a year older and with a year's experience, could make quite a bit of improvement," Norton said this week. "I feel we can move into the first division in the conference, maybe as high as third if everyone plays the way they can."
The Jayhawks return six lettermen from the team that finished seventh in the Big Eight last year. The returners include the 'Hawks' second and third best scorers Craig DeLongy and Stan Zimmerman, based on average per round.
DeLongy, a freshman last year, led the squad with a 78.6 average for 18 holes. DeLongy, despite his low average, could manage only one victory in five individual matches last season.
Zimmerman, Topeka sophomore, was close behind DeLongy with a 78.8 average. Zimmerman faired much better in individual competition than did DeLongy. He won seven and lost five last season. Zimmerman is still on the team despite the loss of the top of his left thumb last summer in a water skiing accident.
