SAC Sounding Off in 2012-13

September 26, 2012

We get it. We were the students once upon a time as well -- and sometimes, or maybe most of them, you'd much rather hear from one of your peers than another teacher or administrator telling you what's what.

After all, high school athletes are the ones on the fields of competition, the ultimate doers of high school sports. And we've got an impressive group of them representing you this school year -- our 16 members of the MHSAA Student Advisory Council.

Each Tuesday, we'll present a viewpoint from one of our eight seniors or juniors that we hope rings true with many of you. And we encourage our readers, especially students, to comment constructively and add to the conversation.

We'll kick things off next week with Madeleine Martindale, a junior from Lake Orion and one of our first-year council members. To learn more about the Student Advisory Council and this year's members, click for the SAC page on MHSAA.com.

Performance of the Week: Bay City Western's Drew Goik

Goik sank a birdie putt in a playoff hole to edge teammate Logan Gehoski for the medalist honor at the Bay County Championship at Green Hills Golf Course in Pinconning after both had helped their team card a tournament record-292 to claim the team championship. The playoff was only the third during the event’s 56-year history – and first since Goik’s father Brent also won a tie-breaker in 1992.

Both Drew Goik and Gehoski shot 1-under-par 71 to set up the playoff. Goik, while growing up around the sport, is a relative newcomer playing it having taken it up during the summer before his freshman year of high school. He previously played baseball most intensely growing up and also played basketball at Western his first two years of high school before turning his focus to golf this past winter. The Bay County win was his third tournament title this spring.
