Boys Varsity Golf vs. Multiple Opponents

Game Date
Apr 6, 2017

The Waynesville Tiger Golf team participated in the Missouri State University Relays Tournament today at the Bill and Payne Stewart Golf Course in Springfield. The players finally got to play in a tournament without needing any rain gear. The Tigers participated in the Class 4 group and that is all the data this I will discuss.

 

The tournament was won by Glendale with a team total of 295. The Tigers finished 9th with a 484. The tournament medalist was Alex Locke from the Falcons with a 1 over par, 71.

 

The Tigers were led by Sophomore Ben Pollman with a 105. Most of my regular players were sick, injured, or out for other purposes, so I took a very young team. They actually faired well considering their inexperience. The group managed to tie a different group I had taken to the Union Tournament. That group included my actual number 1 and 3 players. 

 

I was very pleased with Ben's performance today. He is getting to the green area in 2-3 strokes, but has difficulty finishing the hole due to chipping and pitching woes. We have discussed what he needs to address at practice and with time, his short game will get much better. Aaron Choi also has begun a trend of shooting near a 110 as he had a 111 Monday and 110 today. He is showing consistency in his scoring. Other Tiger scores were Archer Hedgepath 132, Ben Bibb 138, and Zac Medina 137. This was Bibb and Medina's first tournament appearance.

 

The young tigers are a long way from being competitive, but they are an eager bunch and I am looking forward to watching them continue to improve through practice and off-season play.

 

The Tigers will play next at Rolla on Monday, April 10th with a duel match versus the Bulldogs at Oak Meadows Country Club in Rolla.
