will have another opportuni-

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.”

Golf Club staff has cut and
placed pool noodles in each
of the holes so that when
the ball goes in the hole,
it can be easily retrieved
without touching the flag
— removing the flag is not
allowed.
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

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.
