2016 Basic Boys Golf Capsule

BASIC

Head coach: Jimmy Wilson, third season

Returning lettermen: One

Top golfers: Jeff Swaim (Jr.); Zach Longman (Jr.); Gavin Mangan (Jr.)

Outlook: Wilson said he has plenty of players, but little experience. The Wolves expect to carry a roster of 12, but Swaim is the only returning letterman.

“We’re very young,” Wilson said. “We’ve got a lot of kids showing up, but we don’t have the numbers as far as experience on the golf course.”
