Ingham Cardiovascular Group Main Office

Practice Update
A few parents have asked questions about practice schedules for golf. Practices are posted on Coach Stolz's classroom window and he is often in text communication with players as well. Practice runs from 3-4:30pm on non-match practice days unless the the team plays a practice round. This is dependent upon the weather conditions as well as the course schedule at College Fields.
We are aware that the Team Schedule link on the blog is not up to date for the JV team and we are working with the Okemos Athletic Boosters to correct the situation. Schedules were given out to golfers earlier this spring and we will continue to post updates on the blog.

Rory McIlroy's a good sport about losing the green jacket
Mon Apr 11 08:07pm EDT
Now this, friends, is a sportsman."Flying to Malaysia with Charl!" McIlroy said on Twitter. "Glad one of us has a green jacket on!!!" McIlroy also re-tweeted messages from fans who joked that they didn't know there were houses at Augusta until McIlroy hit his tee shot on 10 up among them.
It's entirely possible that McIlroy may gain almost as many fans with the graceful way he handled defeat, answering direct questions with a wry smile, as he would have with victory. We can't all know what it's like to win a green jacket, but we all know what it's like to fall short.
"Well, that wasn't the plan!" McIlroy tweeted shortly after the end of the round. "Found it tough going today, but you have to lose before you can win. This day will make me stronger in the end."
