L-R: Ailene Zhang ’21, Sara Hanover ’25, Bill McDonald ’68, and the coach, Fred Hanover P’25.

Two dozen San Diego Eagles, friends, and family took to the links Saturday to learn and to play.

On a very pleasant day (of which we have enjoyed so many recently), the group gathered at The Links at Lakehouse driving range in San Marcos initially for some instruction and guidance from Fred Hanover P’25, coach of the UCSD men’s golf team. Warmed up, the group then proceeded to the nearby Lakehouse executive course to play the front nine.

L-R: Ray Berube ’78 P’13 ’17, Ray Smith ’19, Justin Niles ’09, Brian Caddigan ’96, and Joe Mahler ’74 P’11.

L-R: Dennis Monahan ’82, Carole Monahan ’82, Brian Tsu ’00, and Margot Tsu.

This was the third year Coach Hanover has organized this event for the chapter and one of the features is a hole where players can “Beat the Coach” if their tee shot falls closer to the hole than his shot. It is perhaps a testament to his coaching that three players this year beat the coach’s shot.

Following golf, most of the group returned to the main course and enjoyed lunch at the Brickmans Restaurant.

Half the group at lunch.
