Royal golf team has challenges, opportunities

ROYAL CITY — The Royal High School golf team has an uphill climb ahead of it this year, said Coach Pete Christensen. “We had high hopes until a couple of our boys went back to playing soccer,” Christensen said. “They played soccer their freshman year and came to golf last year and they did really well in golf and they went back to soccer this year. We thought we'd have a run at the league and district title but now it's going to be really tough.”
