Our team really came through on a very tough course; team scores reflected the difficulty of the course.  It is not friendly to walkers, but the team persisted.  Erin Randall continues to handle the #1 spot on our roster well and medaled at #5.  Katie Lovell earned her first ever medal by chipping in with a #9 medal.  Mara Jessen had only 17 putts.

Our last home meet is Thursday at Wildcat in Shellsburg where we host Benton Community.  Monday is the WAMAC Super Meet at Gardner Golf Course in Marion.
