Laurel's Carson Hackmann, Hannah Adams win tight competition at Eastern A Divisional golf

BILLINGS — Laurel’s Carson Hackmann and Billings Central’s Nick Pasquarello battled atop the boys leaderboard, with Hackmann winning medalist honors with a one-round 73 Thursday at the Eastern A divisional golf tournament at Lake Hills Golf Course.

Pasquarello came in second, one shot back with a two-over 74.

Laurel sisters Hannah Adams and Haylee Adams were also separated by one stroke in the girls competition. Hannah Adams won the individual crown after shooting a first-round 79. Haylee Adams came in second with an 80

The top five individuals on the boys side was rounded out by Central’s Malachi Stewart (79), Lewistown’s Jake Henderson (80) and Miles City’s Ryder Lee (81). Karsyn Swigart of Miles City and Breana Jensen of Laurel tied for third in the girls tourney, each with a one-round 85. Alivia Webinger of Laurel also placed in the top five with a 90.

The top four teams, consisting of five golfers each, earned automatic berths to the state tournament, which will be held Oct. 1-2 at the Butte Country Club.

Billings Central’s boys and Laurel’s girls took home championships. The Rams, who shot a combined 319, prevailed by five strokes over second-place Laurel in the boys standings, while Laurel won comfortably in the girls standings with a one-round total of 334, 61 shots ahead of second-place Sidney.

Havre (359) and Livingston (360) also placed in the top four of the boys standings. Livingston (408) and Havre (463) joined the top-four of the girls tournament.

In addition to the top four boys and girls teams advancing to the state tournament, the top 30 individuals with the lowest scores qualified.

Whitefish's Cam Kahle, Corvallis' Macee Greenwood take home Western A divisional golf titles

With COVID-19 restrictions, golf tournaments have largely been limited to one-day events.

On the individual side of things, it was Whitefish's Cameron Kahle who came away with the best score of the day for the boys, and Corvallis' Macee Greenwood had the low score of the day on the girls scorecard.

Kahle, a senior, shot an even-par 72 to win, followed closely by his teammate Billy Smith, who shot a 74.

"I couldn't get anything to fall coming down the stretch, but I made some good saves and was able to scratch out an even-par," said Kahle. "I came into this week with pretty low expectations. I had a back injury situation, got that figured out and hit a draw all day and was able to feel it around the golf course. Happy with how I played (Saturday)."

Heading into the week of state, Kahle obviously is eyeing the title, but he also had an overall goal for his senior season to shoot a combined 10-under par in tournaments and is close heading into state.

Regardless of his individual performance, Kahle is more than confident in his team.

In the boys team rankings, Whitefish also came away with the combined low score of the day with a 308. Whitefish golfers Marcus Kilman and Johnny Nix shot 80 and 82, respectively.

"Coming into this year I knew we were going to be the best," said Kahle. "I mean, we're the best team out here, there's no question about it. If we go out next Thursday and Friday and do what we're supposed to do, then there's not a chance in hell anyone can beat us."

Hamilton came in second with a combined score of 332. Polson came in third with a score of 351.

On the girls side, Greenwood ruled the day with her 2-over 74

"I think I played pretty steady," said Greenwood. "I was in the fairway, hit a lot of greens, then didn't make any putts but didn't three-putt, which always helps."

Heading into state Greenwood said she just needs to put together a consistent tournament.

"Getting mentally focused and just hitting a bucket of balls a day," said Greenwood. "I just want to put two good rounds together and see what happens."

In the team standings, Corvallis came in third with a combined score of 400. Polson came in second, shooting a 397, and Whitefish swept with their girls winning with a score of 379.

Here are the final scores from all 95 players:

Boys:

GIRLS

Joyce second, Yelenich fourth at State A golf

HAMILTON — Tricia Joyce is within striking distance of a state championship.

The Butte Central sophomore shot an 83 Friday at the Hamilton Golf Club and is a second-place tie with Glendive’s Breilyn Riggin at the Class A State tournament. Joyce and Riggin are one shot behind Sidney’s Kaelyn Volk heading into Saturday’s final round. Results

Joyce placed second at state last year.

On the boys’ side, Butte Central junior Tyge Yelenich shot a 79 and is in a four-way tie for fourth place at the halfway point.

Max Toenjes of Hamilton shot a 3-under-par 69 on his home course to take the lead. Liam Clancy of Billings Central sits in second at 73, while Paul O’Neil of Laurel is third at 78.

Hamilton has a comfortable lead in team standings. The Broncs hit 312, and Polson is a distant second at 329. Defending champion Billings Central is tied with Laurel for third at 333.

Butte Central is holding down sixth place at 352.

Also for the Maroons, Cameron Johnson is tied for 25^th place at 85. He is four shots out of the top 15, which designates All-State honors.

Gator Yelenich shot a 91, Bryan Arnold hit 97, and Dan McCloskey carded a 111.

The Sidney girls shot 369 and hold a 17-shot lead over second-place Whitefish, the defending champion.

 WHITEFISH’S KAHLE WINS CLASS A STATE GOLF TITLE

October 04, 2019 at 5:00 am | The Daily Inter Lake

LAUREL — Whitefish’s Cameron Kahle won a three-hole playoff by shooting par on the third hole at the State A Golf Tournament at Laurel Golf Club in Laurel on Friday.

Kahle defeated Laurel’s Carson Hackmann, who was tied for third place with Kahle after Day 1 of the tournament. Both shot low rounds of 77 on Day 2, along with Laurel’s Nick Pasquarello.

A 12-foot birdie on No. 17 and an eagle on 18 by Kahle forced extra holes.

In sudden death, Kahle and Hackmann opened with pars on No. 10. On 18, Kahle could have won with a 15-foot birdie but missed. Play shifted back to No. 10 where Hackmann knocked a drive into the creek and double-bogeyed on a par-5. Kahle’s par sealed his victory.

Polson’s Trey Kelley tied for ninth place.

Andrew Brozek and Johnny Nix of Whitefish were 13th and 17th respectively.

Hannah Adams of Laurel took the girls’ state title with sister Haylee at second.

Macee Greenwood of Corvallis, who led after Day 1, finished one stroke behind Haylee Adams, in third place.

Polson’s Ellie Thiel tied for eighth.

Whitefish’s Megan Archibald, the school’s highest finisher, tied for 11th place. Ella Shaw was 17th.

Laurel swept the boys and girls team titles. The boys edged out Butte Central, who led after the first day.

The Whitefish girls finished in second place and the boys fourth. Polson girls were sixth.

Laurel programs sweep at State A golf, Tricia Joyce wins first title, Ryggs Johnston wins again

RYGGS JOHNSTON/Kyle.Houghtaling@406mtsports.com

HAMILTON — When Libby's Ryggs Johnston walked off the ninth green Saturday at the Hamilton Golf Club, the senior knew he had won the State A boys title.

But Johnston ended his illustrious prep career — likely the best-ever in Montana high school golf history — with a bogey.

"I don't know if there's ever too much smiling after a bogey," Johnston said. 

What can you say? The kid is the ultimate competitor. The last two days at the state tournament — and the last four years — are proof.

The Libby senior carded a 67-70—137 to claim his fourth straight state title across two different classifications. He joins Columbus' Brandon Davison (1995-98) as the only other four-time boys champion, according to the Montana High School Association, and Johnston did it all in dominant fashion.

His 7-under par 137 ties the second-best Class A mark at state, per the MHSA, and it trails only his own Class A record he set last season in Sidney (134). Johnston also owns the Class B and all-class record at 128. He hasn't lost a prep tournament in Montana since the regular season of his freshman year.

"...I'm kind of relieved it's over," Johnston said. "It's been a goal for me since freshman year and I achieved it, so I'm happy."

"Winning a state championship is not easy."

For the last four seasons, however, Johnston surely made it look that way.

***

Butte Central's Tricia Joyce is someone who knows just how difficult it is to win a state title. 

For three seasons, Joyce placed in the Top 4 at state, including a second-place finish her freshman season.

On Saturday, she finally got her turn atop the podium.

"I don't know if it's really hit me yet, but I'm just glad I didn't lose," Joyce said succinctly.

Joyce shot a 75-77—152 to fight off feisty Corvallis freshman Macee Greenwood by five strokes. The back-and-forth play between the underclassman and upperclassman played out for 36 holes, as it had all season.

"We were battling back and forth. I'd blow up on a hole and she'd make birdie, and then we'd do the opposite," Greenwood said. "It definitely kept me focused the whole round."

In the blustery weather at the Hamilton Golf Club Saturday, Joyce said she just stayed within herself, and ultimately the experience won out.

She finished with a 2-foot par putt on Hole 18, managing her nerves just enough to make winning state seem simply routine.

"I just didn't want to miss it — I didn't want to 3-putt my last hole — I just had to make that last putt," Joyce said.

"It feels pretty awesome. This is the way I wanted to end it."

***

For Laurel coach Jim O'Neil, the Locomotives state titles mean just a little more this season. 

The Class A trophy for the Laurel girls is a symbol to the dedication that they put in place before the season.

"We met in the winter and I told them I believed that if they collectively put their efforts together that we could win a state championship," O'Neil said. "They worked incredibly hard and achieved that goal."

For the boys, celebrating their second straight team title, it's a fitting farewell to O'Neil's son in his senior season.

"Detaching myself as dad is difficult in a situation like this, but this I know — I'm incredibly proud of all of these guys," O'Neil said. "What they did was pretty dang impressive."

No doubt.

The Top 4 Laurel boys, Carson Hackmann, Nick Pasquarello, Cash Golden and Jim's son, Paul O'Neil, all finished with all-state rounds a day after shooting just 1-over par collectively on Friday. Carson Hackmann, O'Neil's nephew, led the bunch with a 145, finished in a four-way second-place tie overall.

Pasquarello, placed sixth with a 71-79—150, Golden finished a stroke behind that and Paul placed ninth with a 152. 

"Paul had our lowest score average for this season, and he didn't get it done today, but he is the glue that held this thing together," coach O'Neil said of his son. "...(As a dad), I'm a little disappointed for him, but my pride in Paul is indescribable."

Saturday's 308 as a team kept the Locomotive boys from capturing the Class A record round, but the 289-308—597 is still the fourth-best team-finish ever, according to the MHSA. It trails two other Laurel programs (589, 1999; 593, 1998), and Whitefish (595, 2006).

To illustrate just how tough the Laurel boys were, even the Locomotives fifth golfer, Kade Ewalt, posted an all-state round with a 12-place 80-79—159. Because it was the lowest score for Laurel, though, it didn't count to the final team total.

The Laurel girls won in similarly dominant fashion turning in another true team performance. 

"Our girls shot their lowest round of the year today, so to play their best round at the most important time of the year says something about this group," O'Neil said of the Locomotive girls, celebrating their first state championship since 1971. 

Sisters Hannah and Haylee Adams finished tied for fourth place, each shooting a 176 over two days. Elise Shovar placed ninth with a 184, and Keli Hodges finished just outside the top 15 with a 190.

"It was a collective effort where they just cared about each other and they would not let the other one down," O'Neil said. "They were a band of sisters."

***

Similar story lines abounded on the final day of the Class A state tournament in Hamilton. For Corvallis' Keelee Storrud, the senior shot one of her best rounds — a 90, that was oh-so close to her goal of an 89.

Still, Storrud's eighth-place finish, along with Greenwood's second-place 78-79—157 helped power the Blue Devils to a third-place trophy — the first piece of hardware for the third-year program.

"I'm just really proud, just touched. To come this far in a short period of time shows you what kind of kids they are," said a teary-eyed coach Kristy Schlimgen alongside her son, Luke, who also garnered all-state honors with a 12th-place finish on the boys' side.

The Stevensville boys also brought home their first-ever state trophy, eking out third place by one stroke over Frenchtown, 659-660. It's been a longtime coming for coach Jack Filcher, who couldn't hide his smile when he found out his boys had done it.

Zel Frost led the Yellowjackets with an 11th place 78-80—158, one season after missing the cut by one spot. 

"It feels good to say we accomplished that and brought home a trophy," Frost said.

Ivan Yazvac also claimed all-state honors, placing 15th alongside Ryan Adolph of Billings Central.

Not to be outdone, the hosting Hamilton boys finished second overall with a two-day score of 309-316—625. That score would have been good enough to win the last six Class A state tournaments.

"I'm very proud of the boys. We've got some boys that are kind of frustrated with the way they golfed the last two days, but I'm so proud of them," Hamilton coach Owen Burch said. "Second place, and the score we shot; I mean, we shot a 309 yesterday and were 20 shots out of first place. That's never happened to me in 34 years of coaching."

With the silver, though, three Bitterroot schools brought home state hardware, a fact the friendly rivals celebrated after the tournament. The Stevi and Hamilton boys and Corvallis girls, all stood alongside each other for a photo op.

Individually, the Broncs' Tristan Hanson tied Ryggs Johnston's second-day low score of 70 to move into a 4-way second-place tie in the individual race, making for a hysterical sight on the podium. Hanson had to shimmy alongside Polson's Matt Hobbs, Whitefish's Cameron Kahle and Laurel's Hackmann on the podium's second-step. All four shot a two-day score of 145.

Hamilton's Zach Taylor placed seventh with a 151.

The Whitefish girls finished second overall, and Ella Shaw placed third with a 88-85—173. Her teammate, Megan Archibad, placed seventh wiith a 179. 

Custer County's Ashtyn Swigart, Billings Central's Perry Widdicombe, Polson's Cali Cannon, Sidney's Karly Volk, Dillon's Lindsey Huber, Hamilton's Aly Rose and Libby's Sammee Bradeen also earned all-state recognition.

For the boys, Frenchtown's Mason Pyron and Derek Wolff also finished in the top 15

Sidney girls, Miles City boys win Eastern A golf titles

Whitefish girls repeat, Billings Central takes boys title

SIDNEY -- Saturday was nearly a banner day for western Montana golf teams at the Class A State golf tournament, but as anybody who's ever watched a putt lip out knows nearly isn't good enough in golf. 

Hamilton made up six strokes on Billings Central, but it wasn't enough. As the Broncs fell just short of repeating as the boys' team champion, the Whitefish girls padded their Day 1 lead and won their second state title in as many seasons.

Whitefish, which led by 24 strokes after Day 1, won its state record 18th state title by a 39-stroke margin over host Sidney.

Coral Schulz repeated as Class A champion, leading a host of Bulldogs who walked off the course with all-state honors.  Katie Fyall improved her 2014 finish one by stroke, taking third and Hayley and Holly Hileman fishished tied for 14th.

Billings Central's Liam Clancy won boys' gold by five strokes over Hamilton's Max Toenjes.

Schulz led by six heading into the final round. She shot an 80 on Saturday and one stroke was trimmed off the lead by Butte Central's Tricia Joyce, who finished with a 79 -- the day's only sub-80 round.

Frenchtown was 54 strokes behind Sidney in third, the exact spot the Broncs finished last season. Dani Flynn, who rounded out the top 10 with a two-day total of 185, was the Broncs' lowest scorer.

Hamilton's Sydni Rose was sixth with a 180.

On the boys' side, four of Hamilton's five golfers shaved strokes off their Day 1 totals, including a 10-stroke difference for Connor Hawks, who finished far back in the pack.

Billings Central had three of its golfers card scores higher than they turned in on Friday, including two with a difference of 12 of more. The difference, however, wasn't enough. 

Clancy fired a 74, one stroke better than the 75 that gave him a two-stroke advantage heading into the second day. Toenjes answered with a 76, vaulting him up two spots from his 2014 finish.

Two other Broncs finished with all-state honors; Josh Heath finished fifth and Blaine Wetzsteon closed his round in a four-way tie for 11th. Also in the pack were Whitefish's Cole Turgeon and Joey Walp.

Whitefish was third with a two-day total of 679.

Polson's Carson McDaniel was 15th, rounding out the all-state team.

BC’s Tricia Joyce places second at State A golf

SIDNEY — Tricia Joyce lived up to the billing.

The Butte Central freshman golfer placed second at the Class A State golf tournament, which concluded Saturday at the Sidney Country Club.

Joyce had the low round of the day Saturday, firing a 79 one day after an 82. Her 161 total was five shots behind Whitefish’s Coral Schulz, who followed a 76 with an 80 to defend her individual title.

Katie Fyall of Whitefish placed a distant third at 170.

Whitefish also defended its team title, winning with a 720 total. Sidney was a very distant second place at 759.

Billings Central won the boys title with a 659, beating second-place Hamilton by 12 shots.

Liam Clancy of Billings Central won the individual title after following a 75 with a 74 for a 149 total. Max Toenes of Hamilton took second at 154, followed by Tyrell Walter of Lewistown at 160.

Sophomore Tyge Yelenich led the Butte Central boys, who didn’t have enough golfers for a team score.

Yelenich followed an 86 with an 85 for a 171. He missed All-State recognition by four shots. The top 15 individuals take home that honor.

Senior Bryan Arnold shot a 103 for a 197, while classmate Tyler Kump hit a 101 for a 207.

SIDNEY — What a difference a year makes.

The Billings Central Rams took advantage of a huge first-round lead to overcome a shaky start Saturday and earn the sixth boys’ golf championship in school history and first since 2003.

They were led by medalist Liam Clancy, who shot a 74 on Saturday to follow a first-round 75 and win by five strokes.

“We felt like we were in a pretty good position heading into (the final round),” said Central coach Mark Hutchinson. “However, we were in this position a year ago and I know they were having some butterflies and thoughts about not losing this lead even though it was so large.”

Last October, the Rams took a three-stroke lead into the final round only to see Hamilton out-shoot them by 13 on the second day and earn the state title.

“I knew we’d really have to play poorly not to win it after the way we played (Friday),” Hutchinson said. “With the conditions the way they were, the kids knew it would be a grind.

The Rams finished with a team score of 650, 12 strokes ahead of runner-up Hamilton. Whitefish was third with a team score of 679.

Clancy won by five strokes over Hamilton's Max Toenjes.

"Liam played outstanding all weekend," Hutchinson said. "I couldn't be happier for him. He deserved winning the individual championship and it's something he'll never forget."

Clancy certainly won't forget the shot he hit on the 17th hole Saturday.

After seeing his lead dwindle to two strokes, he eyed the flag 180 yards away.

"I just wanted to put a good stroke on it," Clancy said.

WHITEFISH — Whitefish senior Coral Schulz opened her defense of the Class A state championship with a win at the Whitefish Invitational on Wednesday afternoon at Whitefish Lake Golf Club.

Schulz shot a four-over-par 76 on her home course to finish three shots ahead of her teammate, Katie Fyall.

Whitefish’s Joey Walp made it a sweep for the Bulldogs on the boys’ side, earning the victory with a round of 3-over-par 75.

Walp bested Polson’s Carson McDaniel and Hamilton’s Max Toenies who each carded a 78. Walp’s teammate, Brenden Bulls, joined him in the top 10 with a sixth-place finish after a round of 86.

Polson had three boys in the top 10 as Matt Hobbs (seventh) and Hogan Kelley (10th) joined McDaniel. The Pirates’ top finisher in the girl’s event was Kiyara McCue in 11th.

Gabe Love of Columbia Falls shot the best round of the day by a Wildcats golfer, shooting an 88 to tie Hobbs for seventh.

No team scores were recorded at the meet. Hamilton placed three golfers in the top five on the boy’s side and had the third place finisher, Sydni Rose, in the girl’s event.

GREGSON — Tyge Yelenich is a Divisional champion.

The Butte Central sophomore golfer shot an 80 at the Fairmont Hot Springs Golf Course Saturday. Yelenich then beat Josh Heath of Hamilton in the first hole of a sudden-death playoff to capture the title at the Western A Divisional tournament.

The tournament featured teams from the Southwestern A and Northwestern A conferences.

Butte Central’s Tricia Joyce placed second on the girls side, continuing her impressive freshman campaign.

Coral Schulz of Whitefish won the tournament with a 77. Joyce shot 86, while Whitefish’s Katie Fyall placed third at 88.

Just 26 golfers finished on the girls’ side, so all individuals will advance to next week’s Class A State tournament in Sydney.

Whitefish won the girls’ title at 372. Frenchtown placed second at 429, followed by Dillon at 466 and Hamilton at 482.

Whitefish won the boys’ title with a 346. Hamilton placed second at 347, while Polson took third at 352 and Columbia Falls placed fourth at 382.

Butte Central placed fifth at 384. The top four teams and top 30 individuals advance to State.

Four Butte Central boys qualified to play next week. Tyler Kump, who is moonlighting as the place kicker for the Butte Central football team, shot a 97. Sam Joyce carded a 103, while Bryan Arnold hit 104.

Yelenich, Kump, Joyce and Arnold are elegible to play next week. Cameron Johnson of BC shot a 117, missing the cut.

Joyce second, Yelenich fifth at Butte Central Invitational

The high school golf career for Butte Central freshman Tricia Joyce got off to a pretty good start Monday at the Butte Central Invitational.

Maroon sophomore Tyge Yelenich, meanwhile, proved his strong freshman season wasn’t a fluke.

Joyce fired an 85 at the Highland View Golf Course to place second at the tournament. Sydni Rosa of Hamilton took home medalist honors with an 82.

Only two girl golfers shot in the 80s, with Frenchtown’s Jamie McNally placing a distant third at 94.

Yelenich placed fifth on the boys’ side with a 3-over-par 73.

Hamilton’s Josh Heath won the tournament title with a 2-under 68. He was followed by Will Holloran of the Bozeman junior varsity team at 70. Livingston’s Colton Oopelt and Hamilton’s Max Toenjes tied for third at 73.

The Bozeman JV team won the meet with a 304. Hamilton placed second at 306, followed by Livingston at 317 and Polson at 325. The host Maroons finished fourth with a 329.

Seniors Bryan Arnold and Tyler Kump each shot 84 for the Maroons, while sophomore Cameron Johnson shot an 88. Junior Frank Dwyer carded a 92. Only the top four scores count in team standings.

Butte High’s JV shot 348, with Marcus Lynch leading the way with an 83. Kaden Hanni hit 78, while Levi Loggins shot 88, J.J. Mohr carded 90 and Kellen Lean hit 91.

The Maroons also fielded a JV team, with Zach Luebeck hitting 94 and Jake McPherson shooting 97. Also for the BC JV squad, Patrick Dolan shot 102, Riley Richardson hit 105 and Sam Sterns fired a 107.

Only two schools had enough golfers for two girls’ teams. Frenchotwn shot 389, while Dillon hit 351.

Next up for the Maroons is Friday’s Park Invitational in Livingston.

Blue Ponies tee off on home course

Havre High boys golf team crushes the field at the Havre High Golf Tournament

Roger Miller

Havre High junior Dustin Haas tees off on the second hole at Prairie Farms Golf Course Thursday morning. Haas shot a 76 to tie for first place at the Havre High Golf Tournament.

One year ago, the Havre High Golf Tournament was washed out by a severe thunderstorm. But fast forward one year, and not only were there no thunderstorms for the annual meet, but there was a lot of really good golf played under ideal conditions.

Good scores were especially the theme for the Havre High boys as the Blue Ponies rolled to the team title at the 2015 Havre High Golf Tournament held Thursday at Prairie Farms Golf Course. The Ponies easily toppled teams from Lewistown and Browning, and junior varsity squads from Great Falls High and CMR.

On the flip side, the Pony girls made the most of the day, finishing third behind a powerful team from Browning, as well as Central A rival Lewistown.

“I’m pretty pleased with how the kids played,” said HHS third-year head coach Brett Gilman. “We had some really good scores from some of the kids and some scores we think could have been better. But it’s early in the season yet, and there’s plenty of time to improve. So I’m pleased with the way the day went.”

The loaded HHS boys squad, which was coming off a Top Six finish at the season-opening Great Falls Invitational, should be especially pleased with Thursday’s round. Havre scored a 315 to beat second-place Lewistown by a whopping 44 strokes. The Eagles are the defending Central A champs, but after Thursday’s tourney, it looks as though no one in the conference will slow down the Ponies.

Junior Dustin Haas led the way with a solid 76, which tied him for first place with Lewistown’s Tyrell Walter. Walter was awarded medalist honors via the scorecard tiebreaker, but Haas still put together a strong round of golf. And right behind Haas’ strong day was HHS senior Jeff Miller, who carded an even-par 36 on the front nine, and finished with a 77 for third-place honors.

Havre has been very consistent through its lineup so far this season, and Thursday was no different. Senior Jerod Boles and junior Aden Passon each scored rounds of 81 to easily tie for forth, while junior Kane Gabrielsen came in with a round of 85, good enough for sixth place.

From the junior varsity ranks, junior Trey Hanson carded a 91, while Hondo Owens shot 97.

On the girls side, the Ponies couldn’t quite catch up to Browning and Lewistown, but Havre’s young squad, with just two seniors at the top of the lineup, showed plenty of promise on a beautiful day at Prairie Farms, where conditions were near perfect for golf.

While Browning was the only girls team to break 400, Havre finished the day with a 438, led by senior Payton Howard’s round of 93. Howard was playing in her first varsity tournament since her sophomore season, and she played well from start to finish, and the round landed her in fourth place overall. Fellow senior Randi Gabrielsen shot 104.

The day was also good experience for HHS’s younger golfers on the girls team. Sophomore Regan Lammers scored a 119, while freshman Teagan Fee shot 122 and sophomore Grace Litzinger rounded out the scoring with a 124. Freshman Kinzee Peterson was the ponies’ top JV player with a 121.

While the day was highly success for the Ponies, the turnaround to another big tournament will be quick. Havre recently added the Belgrade Invitational to its schedule, and will travel to Bozeman’s Riverside Country Club for that tournament Monday. The Ponies also head to the Browning Invite next Thursday.
