Shrish Dwivedi (11)
Varsity Boys’ Golf
Varsity Captain Shrish Dwivedi (11) was on par for his leading team performance.
“Shrish is as good as he is today because he’s a complete student of the game,” Coach Ie-Chen Cheng said. “His work ethic, his mannerisms, his approach to the game, his attention to detail is what typical PGA Pro’s do.”
The golfer was the low-scorer with a 32 in the victorious 182-230 game against Crystal Springs and a 34 in the 191-221 win over Kings Academy.
Shrish earned medalist honors in six of seven matches and lead in West Bay Athletic League (WBAL) scoring as of last week.
Captain Nikhil Reddy (11) remarked upon his time on the golf team with Shrish.
In addition to his three years on Varsity, Shrish has played golf since second grade.
“I am constantly amazed by his ability to manage his time so well and his ability to maintain his focus both on and off of the golf course,” sister Ila Dwivedi (’12) said. “As an athlete, Shrish is extremely dedicated. He is very well mannered and strong-willed. Both I and my parents are very proud of him and all of his accomplishments.”
The boys’ stand 7-0 in league, breaking the school record of six over.
