The Escalon High School boy’s golf season has begun, and when Coach Rusty Fachner assesses his team’s play at this point, the word he uses is “Surprised.” After losing to a very talented Bret Harte squad at Greenhorn Creek Golf Course in their first match of the year, the young Cougar linksters have rattled off four straight victories. “When you consider we lost four senior starters from last year’s squad, and we have only two starters this year with varsity experience, it'’ been a real nice beginning,” Fachner stated.
