The girls’ golf team had their first meet on Thursday, April 4. They fell to Creston 210-188. Senior Alyssa Ginther golfed a 41, senior Baylee Newell golfed a 45, and senior Hannah Alff golfed a 61. The sophomore duo of Lauren Nicholas and Anna Wieser each golfed a 63. At the end of the lineup, junior Belle Wickman finished her day with a 67.
“We weren’t focused on our individual game like we should have,” head coach Kathy Hobson noted. “I look to improve that as we play more.”

Their next meet will be Tuesday, April 9 at the Atlantic Golf and Country Club against Glenwood.
