Anna Jonesboro coach Halter retires after 35 years
Gregg Hampton reports Anna Jonesboro golf coach Bill Halter, long described as the program’s head hacker since 1964, will retire from teaching after 35 years to enter full-time real estate. Halter, 57, reflects on a career that included a 250 214 record, a 1978 conference title, and guiding players to state and sectional events. Three area golfers, Larry Emery, Jerry Tucker, and Tom Wargo, head to Kansas City for sectional Open qualifying.
