The Cherokee High School golf team is expecting a good season, despite losing some key players after their 20-5 record last year, notably letter winners Jon Guise, Per Andersson, and Karl Magnusson.

"We will be a good team," said coach Paul Budniak. "When we play well, we will be able to compete with the best in our division.
