Tiger Cub golf defeats Patriots

Saturday, September 1, 2007

In a rescheduled match which had been moved twice, Greencastle girls' golf hosted Owen Valley at Old Hickory Thursday night, rather than the usual Windy Hill. The Tiger Cubs made the most of their temporary home, defeating the Patriots 206-239.

GHS senior Dana Norman was medalist with a 42. Chelsea Samuels also went sub-50 with a 47. Coach Brad Kingma was pleased to see his top two play well on the same night.

"I've been waiting for both Dana and Chelsea to play good the same night, so it was good to see it happen," Kingma said. "This is the first time they both played under 50 at the same time."

First-year senior Ashlyn Archer also performed well, firing a personal best 57. Kelsey Murtagh rounded out the Tiger Cub scoring at 60.

"Ashlyn has been improving quite quickly," Kingma said. "This was the second consecutive match that she set her personal best."
