Their team hopes to make the playoffs this year for golf, but it will be difficult seeing as they play teams like Barrington, Portsmouth, and East Providence who have much bigger teams. They have the smallest team in the school, but every one of them have been friends since elementary school, and all agree that playing golf was one of the best decisions they have made in highschool. Caleb plans to attend the University of Rhode Island for the next four years, and to play golf as much as he can during this time. He also hopes to continue playing golf for the rest of his life, and to just enjoy his memories on the course.
