Polson golfers crowd leaderboard at Columbia Falls
by John Heglie
At the Columbia Falls Invitational held at Meadow Lake Golf Course the last week of August, both Polson teams swept the team titles. The Pirate ladds placed all five of their members among the top ten, paced by a team best 76 from Espn Fisher that included a hole-in-one on the twelfth hole along with a pair of one-under pars. Reece Malyevac of Libby took medalist honors with a four-under par 68. The Ronan Chiefs were paced by a top 15 finish from Colter Cornwell.
The Lady Pirate lassies were paced by Ashley Maki, who mirrored State B champion Keni Wade of Bigfork with a cumulative course tally of 86. Maki was two-under Wade on the front nine, while Wade closed out the back nine by notching two-under Maki. The Ronan Maidens were led by Hanna Lytton, who finished among the high teens, a mere seven strokes from squeezing her way among the top 15.

Mission Valley golfers place eleven among top fifteen at Browning Invite
by John Heglie
At Shelby, both Polson Pirate golf squads captured first place with a strong showing at the Browning Invitational held at Marias Valley Golf and Country Club.
Among the Lady Pirate girls, all four placed among the top dozen with Ashley Maki taking silver behind State A champion Katie Lewis of Frenchtown. The Ronan Maiden girls were a player shy of fielding a full fledged team, but were paced by Hanna Lytton, who carded a 109.
The Pirate boys all placed among the top ten with Carson Hupka taking medalist honors with a three over par performance, interspersed by Otto Lund, Torrin Ellis, Hunter Ellison in the odd slots with Espn Fisher taking the tenth spot. The Ronan Chief boys placed a pair among the top 15 with Oliver Rowe twelfth and Colter Cornwell placing fifteenth.
