The Portager's found themselves involved in a Tri-angular meet today at Champion Hills near Honor. Benzie Central invited Northern Michigan Christian (NMC) to this match as well. Little did they know..(The younger team members) that they were in for a treat and or shock, depending on how one looked at it today. Tyler Moss of Benzie Central Eagled the 4th hole from 100 plus yards out and finished one under par with a 35 to be the Match Medalist.Benzie's shooters were well in the 30's!
The number one player for NMC threw a ball in from a sandtrap on the first hole after a very long drive producing an eagle. The drives were something to behold today with 330 yard plus drives being driven. Coach Zadow commented that you just don't see this coming from teenagers. Fun and amazing to watch! Benzie has an awesome team this year.

It wasn't all doom and gloom though for our young team. Jordan Pomeroy was our lowman with a 46. Levi Capper shot a 48, Todd Lyman 50 and Parker a 52 for a team effort of 196, just 3 strokes behind NMC's 193. Benzie won the match with a whopping low 154. Also shooting for OHS was Josh Cebula who carded a 53 and Hunter Slade a 54.
"It's hard not to be intimidated by shooters like that even as an adult", commented Coach Zadow. One would have to agree ,it would be hard to shake off scores like that during a competitve situation(Benzie's).
This match now puts the team at 3-9 overall and still 3-2 for third place in the WMD. It's not over till it's over folks! Anything can happen and our team is on the rise. Next match is MCC at the Manistee Country Club, Monday the 19th. With a 4:30 pm tee time, there is plenty of time to drop in and watch some holes played out after work. Hope to see you there!
