The Britton-Hecla boys golf squad finished third in a eight-team field and the girls were second amongst four teams in a meet held in Webster last week Tuesday.
Coach Ryan Nack’s charges will compete at the Prairie Winds Golf Course in Watertown on Thursday starting at 10 a.m. Saturday they will travel to Eureka for a 10 a.m. start.
“Takeaways from this outing are to believe in our club selection, build our confidence and shake off the bad shots,” said B-H coach Ryan Nack. We also need to focus on the good small areas we want to hit to and block out or not focus on the trouble spots. Easier said than done, but I feel we have a great group of golfers that realize the time and effort we need to put in to get better each day.”
Lofton Heer led the B-H boys, carding a 40-43-83 to place eighth in a field of 39 golfers. Jace Rein was 10th with a 48-40-88, Nate Schuller 15th with a 44-48-92, and Bowen Micko placed 27th with a 56-50-106. Seth Lesnar of Webster Area took medalist honors with a 35-35-70.
Chellon Pruitt led B-H in the girls division with a 54-65-119 to place 15th in a 27-golfer field. Corinne Bosse shot a 60-66-126 to place 17th, Sage Ford had a 60-67-127 to place 18th, and Maddi Micko recorded a 65-74-139 for 21st. Sage Gaikowski of Waubay-Summit shot an 84 to lead all girls’ competitors.
Webster Area won the boys team title with a 245 total. Deuel was second at 253, followed by Britton-Hecla at 263, Great Plains Lutheran 269, Deubrook 278, Florence-Henry 294, Waubay-Summit 328, and Langford Area 340.
