Evanston math teacher hits new record on the golf course

Red Devils 2-2 with 40-6 win over Lander
The novelist Thomas Wolf once wrote “You Can’t Go Home Again,” meaning a place of your past will never be the same when you return. That was indeed the case for former Evanston High School football coach Jim Burton. Now the head coach of the Lander Tigers, Burton returned to Kay Fackrell Stadium Friday night to face a Red Devils team that bares little resemblance to the team he coached just a year ago; many of the faces are the same, but the culture has changed under new head coach Steve Moore and his staff. Evanston carried the momentum of last week’s win over Riverton into Friday’s clash with Burton’s new team, routing the Tigers 40-6 to improve to 2-2 on the season.
