Paired Senior,
Freshman Propel Golf Team Past Archbishop Riordan
by Ryan Eshoff

When two of your top varsity
golfers are underclassmen, you are bound to experience some growing
pains and tough defeats, both of which have been experienced in
abudance this year by the VC golf team. Coach Barry Laing's
combination of upperclassmen and talented underclassmen has struggled
through bad weather and brutal competition from powerhouse golf
programs around the Bay Area and the Peninsula. On March 13, the
team met Archbishop Mitty at San Jose Municipal Golf Course. Although
the Warriors kept it close, the Monarchs came out victorious,
192-212. Against Bellarmine later in the week, in a match that
had been rescheduled, the Bells came out on top 186-229, despite
a superb round by sophomore Matt Warnock. Hosting
St. Francis at Corde Valle, the Warriors were matched up with
the league's top golfer, Stanford-bound Joseph Bramlett,
who led his Lancer squad to a 205-233 win. In a rematch against
Mitty, the Monarchs came out on top in nasty conditions at Corde
Valle, taking the match 211-447. The Warriors took on Archbishop
Riordan on April 6. Led by freshman Eric Kim and
senior David Stasko, who each shot a match-best
37, VC rolled to a 203-230 triumph. Kim and Stasko rank among
the WCVAL's elite golfers. "We've got some amazing young
talent," said Warnock. "The other programs will have
to learn to respect Valley Christian."

This was the backdrop for the Battle Cry stadium event in San
Francisco. Among the thousands of teenagers attending the concert/worship
event were dozens of Valley Christian students. Freshmen, sophomores,

with God.

Spiritual Emphasis
Week
Imagine trudging through a swamp waist deep with nothing
to guide you but your compass. It is night, and you have to use
your instincts to find your way to a marked point. For speaker
Darrin Crowder, he has met many similar challenges
such as this when he joined the army.
Crowder came to Valley Christian the week of March 27 to share
his message with the students of how to separate “what the world
tries to say to you vs. what the Bible is trying to tell you.”
