PLACINGS:
- 1st OHS 178
- 2nd Brethren/BearLake
182
- 3rd MCE 191
- 4th TIE with Baldwin
and Walkerville 215
- 6th Freesoil
In the tie for 4th place,
one of the schools did not have a 5th man/shooter for
their team to use as a tie-breaker so they remain tied.
The Jamboree was held on
the Portager's home course The Heathlands on the front 9.
Coach Zadow was happy to see the team finally shooting
well and winning on their home course. Up until now, She
noticed a pattern of the team winning at the away
matches,but struggling at times on their home front.
Something clicked for them today though, giving
Brethren/BearLake their first loss in the conference
matches for the season. The Conference
Championship will be held
Oct. 5th at the Willows.
The Team would like to
thank Franz's Market for donating all the pop and ice,
Tuttens Lounge and McCarthy's for the Pizza and Mrs.
Griswold for the plates and cups that help to feed every
team that was at OHS's hosted Jamboree! There was plenty
to go around and no one left the match hungry!
Thank
You from the OHS Golf Team!
We also want to thank Dawn
Johnson for loaning/entrusting her camera to reporter
Gwen for today's match!
It's IN! Chris's putt is in
the cup and after a few more holes, the B scramble team
finished with 2 over par. The scramble was held on the
back 9 and they went in 3 men flights. Winning the Flight
A scramble was Brethren/BearLake with Cory Brown, Zack
Mezeske, and Jerry Stuits.
Flight B was
completed with a tie between Custer and Baldwin at 1
under par. They used the 18th hole, the most difficult
hole, to break the tie. Custer'sPar on that hole insured
their victory. That team consisted of Blaine Reinoehl,
Ricky Stepka and Shawn McMann. Winners of both the A and
B team flights took home 4x6 plaques.
In a
scramble, they play from the best/closest ball to the
green. Here, Chris makes a long putt.
It's Tim's
turn to putt.
Chris gives
it another try as Josh lines up the path.
Nathan's
mom and I could see no balls on the fair way as we drove
along. Did the coaches lose their golf balls? I could see
one on the very edge next to the weeds--was it hers? All
three of them wander through the construction site area
on the hunt for the elusive ball.

 Tim leads the way across the bridge
taking us to the next green. It's all down hill to this
green after teeing off across a marsh and pond from a
hill.
A playing partner from MCE
holds the flag as Chris putts out the 4th hole.
The kids tried to keep
things moving anyway they could. This match was huge.
Here, Chris runs after he shot to get ready for the next.
Those golf bags are heavy and the team members impress me
with how they can carry them for that distance.
Josh's shot onto the green
landed just on the edge. He had no trouble putting the
hole out
Tim chips on to the 6th
green.
Over on the 8th hole, Todd
found himself in the sand hazard. The ball is seen trying
to get up and out, but he had to try one more time to
convince it.
