The record led to CoachRyan Best's award as NationalCoach of the Year for girls' golf.According to the NationalHigh School Coaches Association’scommunications liaisonRob Sherrill, the organizationthat gives out the award, theaward is given out to a coachwho has success and longevity inthe sport as well as someone whogives back to the sport.“Coach Best stood out forhis record of success as the coachof both the boys and girls teamsat the school, his overall coachingexperience and his history of givingback on behalf of the schoolsthrough his campus ministrywork. The people we recognizeas Coach of the Year are wellroundedpeople, and Coach Bestcertainly fits that description,”Sherill saidBest does not think thePhoto courtesy of Lynn KruseThe girls golf team after they won state last fall. From left to right: junior JordanChael, senior Kelsey Castinado, graduate Ali Kruse, coach Ryan Best, graduateIsabella Baldacci, graduate Jillian Montalvo, and junior Baile Winslow.award will influence eighth gradegolfers' decision to come to SaintThomas Aquinas to play golf.The biggest factor, according toBest, is the other members of theteam and the team's chemistry.The main reason that the awardis not a factor is that outside theAquinas community not manypeople know about the award;therefore, not many eighth gradegolfers will know about it either.“He is calm and relaxed. Hehardly ever gets mad at us. Hemakes everything fun,” seniorand varsity golf member KelseyCastinado said about Best'scoaching style.Castinado went on to saythat Best gets intense, but hedoes it in a way that is hard totell. He keeps the atmospherefun. He also gets to know you ona personal level.Courtney Weber, a 2004graduate from Aquinas and oneof Best's former golfers, agreedwith Castinado. Weber said he isa very laid back coaching style.He is someone the girls can cometalk to with problems outside ofgolf.“He was an absolute blast tobe around,” Weber said. gSaints ScoreboardFootballSept. 2 at homeSaints 21, Great Bend 14Rushing: Heit 9-50Passing: Heit 16-25-1-218Receiving: Williams 7-49, Henning6-132Tackles: Cosentino 6-5, Baska6-3, Horn 6-3, Martinez 6-3Interceptions: Moran (2)Sept. 8 at BV NorthwestSaints 31, BV West 24Rushing: Martinez 15-50Passing: Heit 16-33-3-171Receiving: Henning 8-73Tackles: Horn 4-7, Cosentino4-5Interceptions: Baska, Nachbar,MoranBoys SoccerAug. 26 at homeSaints 1, Saint James 0Lickteig (Parks throw) 7:05Aug. 29 at LS NorthLSN 2, Saints 1Lickteig (Brown) 5:02Aug. 31 at LS WestSaints 2, LSW 1Brown, 1st halfBrown (Crooks), 2nd halfSept. 1 at Lee’s SummitLee’s Summit 1, Saints 0Sept. 6 at homeSaints 3, Bishop Miege 0Lickteig (Heying) 12:05Crooks (Hagenkord) 31:24Geist (Lickteig) 8:09Cross CountrySept. 3 Greg Wilson ClassicGirls Varsity: 2nd / 10 teams5 - Cofer, 9 Reazin, 10 Hopfinger,13 Angles, 17 Romme, 28Loughman, 38 MetzgerBoys Varsity: 4th / 11 teams13 Hornung, 16 Coffin, 25 Gilman,26 Boyles, 32 Aiken, 35Kellerman, 45 Luther, 46 Clark,47 DareSept. 10 Emporia Inv.Girls Varsity: 1st / 13 teams2 Reazin, 5 Cofer, 7 Romme,9 Angles, 11 Hopfinger, 20Loughman, 22 DrillingBoys Varsity: 2nd / 12 teams9 Hornung, 17 Boyles, 25 Coffin,27 Aiken, 29 Kellerman, 31Luther, 53 DareVolleyballAug. 27 at St. JamesSaints 1 def.
