            Two  schools  come  together as  one  and  become  a family.  The  Raston  Girls  Golf Team  is  mixet
       with  Mercy  High  School’s  golf team.  There  are  three  girls from  Ralston, junior Victoria  Kauten,

       junior Cassidy  Loucks,  and  senior Geri  Smieja.  The  thirteen  other girls  are  from  Mercy  High
       School.  Ralston’s  Girls  Golf Team  has  been  sharing a team  with  Mercy  High  for seven  years.  “As a

       Freshman  is was  sort  of  nerve wrecking,  but then  we just  came  together as  a family and  it’s  really
       cool,”  says  Cassidy  Loucks.  But  the  team  had  trouble  keeping the fam ily together.  The  girls  had a
       fair season,  not a  bad  one  and  not  an  awesome  one.  “ Keeping all  the  girls  playing all  year  is  my
       biggest  struggle.  It’s the  only way we will  move  from  the  middle  of the  pack to  the  upper  half.”

       says  Coach  Kosch.  “ One  of  my  Mercy girls  earned*a couple  medals  at varsity tournaments  and
       was ^j-conference  as well  finishing  in  the top  ten  at  our conference  tourney.”  Several  more  ladies

            the JV team  earned  medals at  their events.  “You, have  to  be very,  very dedicated  to  this game to
                  ;uccessful,” said
