APRIL 3, 2020, KEIZERTIMES, PAGE A9 CELTS, continued from Page A12 National Guard after high school, and is hoping that he will have another opportuni- ty to put on a Celtics jersey one last time. “We had new jerseys and I just got $250 cleats for the season. I don’t want that to be for nothing. It just doesn’t feel right for baseball to end this way,” Simpson said. “It’s just crazy. We went from starting the season in a week to not playing at all. I don’t think anyone saw that coming.” Before the suspension, Keeker was able to encourage his squad for the future. “I told the team that this is a minor sacrifice considering what is going on in the coun- try right now. With that be- ing said, it doesn’t make it any easier,” Keeker said. “These kids still have a lot of things to look forward to after grad- uation. This will just be one of many life lessons they will go through.” KEIZERTIMES/Eric A. Howald John Sipple works on his swing at the Willow Lake Golf Center driving range.

All rakes and ball wash- ers have also been removed. Outdoor restrooms will still be available for use. These conditions are flu- id and change at a moments notice according to the Mc- Nary Golf Club website. Howard has enacted simi- lar rules at Willow Lake, mak- ing sure that golfers are at least six feet apart and allow- ing only one person per party in the pro shop at a time. Willow Lake will only be doing credit card transactions only, no cash — patrons will not have to sign the credit card receipt. “We are disinfecting our baskets, ball and tokens multi- ple times a day,” Howard said. “Any place there is a point of contact, we are cleaning it.” No carts or bags will be al- lowed inside the pro shop at Willow Lake and no rental or loaner clubs will be available for use.
