We had better weather conditions than a few weeks ago when the dual with W. Delaware was called due to lightening, however some of our scores weren’t as strong. Freshman Rachel Tandy fired a 50 and was our team medalist for the first time. We brought back our putting difficulties and the longer holes gave us more difficulty than they should.  Jessie Noren and Olivia Walker were the only two with 18 putts.  We will continue to work to eliminate mistakes.

Thursday we are at Center Point’s Rolling Hills course for a meet with CPU.  Monday we will play our WAMAC West Division meet on the back nine at Gardner Golf Course in Marion with a 2:00 start.  May 7 we host our last home meet in Vinton.
