Most people know the recession struck Larchmont in many harsh ways. One of the most extreme cases was the closing of Hampshire Country Club. This was a golf club to which many residents in the area belonged, but more importantly, it was the home golf course of the Mamaroneck Tigers. Hampshire was a very practical course for the Tigers due to its proximity to the high school.

            However, with Hampshire in bankruptcy, the Tigers were forced to find another place to play. This transfer was not as bad as it seems, though. The Tigers’ new practice facility is Bonnie Briar Country Club, another local course. Their home courses are now Bonnie Briar and Winged Foot Golf Club; the latter was the home of the U.S. Open in 2006. “Both of these courses are amazing, so I don't think anybody on the team would be too upset about Hampshire,” golfer Hayden Novikoff ’10 said.

            The Tigers, as of yet, seem to be more adaptable than homesick, winning their first league match.
