NORMAL – University High School has taken home its 10th golf state championship in 25 years.
Dylan Panizo said his one goal since his sophomore year has been to win state.
“The last two years, all summer, all day even sometimes, wake up as soon as the sun rose go back golf at the course and not get home until the day was done,” he said.
Dallas Koth, whose brother also won a golf championship with the school, said experience was a major factor this year.
“The last time we’ve been here in this position we were young,” said Koth. “My freshman year I had a team that didn’t work as hard as these guys.”
Athletic Director Wendy Smith has been with U-High for 22 years and said the attitudes of the students help determine their level of success.
“Our golf program here has a long tradition of being successful so I think every year when we have kinds come into the program they kind of understand that,” Smith said.
The school held an assembly to recognize the team Tuesday afternoon.
