The Class 2, District 5 golf tournament was held today at the Lake Valley Country Club in Camdenton. The Waynesville Tiger's lone representative, Senior Victoria Hooker finished in 9th place with a 95 and will move on to the Class 2, Sectional 3 golf tournament at Whispering Oaks golf course in Marshfield on Monday, October 2nd.

The weather was a little warm, but the course was in excellent shape. Victoria played well in spurts and putted extremely well on very fast greens. On the greens today, a 3-putt was as good as a 2-putt on many other courses. The slight undulations around the holes and the speed of the greens made putting tough. She shot her worst score of the season, but may have played her best golf on the last 5 holes to salvage a 95 on a day where qualifying scores were as high as 110.

Victoria was very displeased with her round overall, but excited about the results of qualifying for sectionals a 3rd straight year. She is hoping to take the next step to qualify for the state tournament 9-10 October.
