As they work toward a state title, the Mustangs continue to embody the values of teamwork, perseverance, and the importance of having fun on the course.


At the heart of the Eldon golf program is a strong sense of cama- raderie. Whether it’s on the course during practice or in the club- house after a round, the team’s bond is undeniable. “Our team is really special,” says junior Brady Rader. “We push each other every day to get better, and it’s not just about golf; we’re all committed to making the program successful.” Brady, who has been playing golf for most of his life, highlights the importance of the team’s strong foundation of support and how it pushes everyone to excel.


“We’re going to give it everything we’ve got."


Players are not just teammates—they’re family. They celebrate each other’s successes, push each other to be better, and create lifelong memories along the way.
