Determination Yields Season's Personal Best for Raicevich

Lutheran High School North sophomore golfer shoots 39, then a personal best of 37 the next day for the Mustangs.

Dan Raicevich's dedication and determination is paying off in this early golf season. 

The sophomore shot 39 in a varsity match on April 13 at and 37 the next day at the Detroit Golf Club.

"His determination was evident when he managed a bogey on a par 5 at Detroit Golf Club, after hitting his drive out of bounds and needing to get up-and-down from a sand bunker for the bogey," said North varsity golf coach Mike Morris. "He then proceeded to knock his approach shot within 4 feet of the flag on the next hole and made the birdie putt."
