Hawk golf girls experience some struggles but still defeat West Sioux
On a beautiful May 6th day at Hawarden, the Hartley-Melvin-Sanborn girls golfers shot a combined 17 strokes higher than they had three days earlier but still managed to pick up a War Eagle Conference dual win. The victory had been assured despite the 222 HMS total because West Sioux was two golfers shy of the four needed to make a team.
The Falcons did provide the medalist in Brenna Reinking who shot a 47. Gracie Knobloch was second with a 49, Kinsey Schirmer third with a 54 and Kaley Pearson fourth with a 57.
The War Eagle Conference Tournament was scheduled for Tuesday and then the Hawks enter district play on Friday at Primghar beginning at 10:00 a.m.
Team scores: HMS 222, West Sioux (incomplete).
Medalists: 1st, Kendra Casey (SC), 44; 2nd, Elise Haack (HMS), 50; 3rd, Kinsey Schirmer (HMS), 49; 4th, Gracie Knobloch (HMS), 53.
HMS varsity scores: Gracie Knobloch 49, Kinsey Schirmer 54, Kaley Pearson 57, Megan Ten Kley 62, Elise Haack 63, Morgan Grooters 66.
