Kasey Edgehouse has officially been named head coach of the Emery High School boy’s golf team, it was recently announced by school officials.

Edgehouse, who is an assistant coach for the Emery High School softball team, is currently in his fourth year as the the Millsite Golf Course manager. He will replace former coach Kevin Reynolds, who held the position for several seasons.

“I grew up around golf, but never really had much for a teacher outside of my Grandpa,” said Edgehouse. “Being able to help kids out with their golf game is important. Golf is something they can carry with them throughout their life.”

While attending Emery High School as a student, Edgehouse was a member of the school’s golf program. Over the last three years Edgehouse has helped with the junior program at the course, which is starting to trickle into the high school.

Edgehouse will take over a team that will return every single member from a productive 2019 season. The Spartans qualified for the state championship tournament after finishing fifth-place in the highly competitive Region 12 division.

“I want to go as far into state as we can,” said Edgehouse when asked about the goal for this upcoming season. “We have some individuals that came make it further into state than we have in the past. So lets get to state and perform well there.”

The Emery High School boy’s golf season is expected to begin this August.
