Theo Anderson hits out of the sand pit at Veterans Memorial golf course
DAYTON/WAITSBURG-Dayton/Waitsburg high school golf team played at Veterans Memorial in Walla Walla on Tuesday, March 29. It was a 9-hole par 36 course. Coach McGhan was pleased with how his team continues to improve around the greens.
Players from all schools are grouped into foursomes at the golf course according to ability. The players exchange scorecards and keep their opponents and their own score. The players are responsible for following the rules, getting scores correct, and making their own decisions. Coaches are available to answer questions but do not coach players through a round. College Place, Columbia Burbank, DeSales, Mac-Hi, Wa-Hi, and WWVA also golfed with Dayton-Waitsburg at Veterans.
Coach McGhan commented that Veterans could be unforgiving if one misses the fairways, and that is where his players lost strokes. Caleb Barron finished the day with a score of 53 to lead DW golfers. Cayle Davis shot a 55, Theo Anderson 61, Garret Palmer 67, and Lucas VanHoose ended with a score of 69.
Lucas' performance was noteworthy, stated McGhan, as he started with four very rough holes but came back on the final five holes to finish with his best score this season.
The Wolfpack will next play golf on Wednesday, April 13, in the Tri-Cities at Sun Willows golf course.
