McCarthy Takes 2nd in Three Golf Matches

The SGS Golf team competed in matches at Clarkston’s Quail Ridge Golf Course on April 13, at the Chewelah Golf Course on April 19, and at Dominion Meadows Golf Course at Colville on April 27.  "Our season has been quick, but I have seen a crazy amount of improvement in my players," says coach Brad Kirsch, noting that only one of his 10 players had significant experience in the game.  "Everyone has had a chance to get out and learn how to play 18 holes of golf, and everyone has had their moments of greatness."  See a Photo Gallery of SGS golfers at all three matches.

Kudos to junior Patrick McCarthy, who finished 2nd in all three matches, including a 1 over par 73 at Colville.  Patrick will be joined by six other Dragons at Districts on May 3rd at Deer Park.  Luke Whitman, Kade Kaiser, Nick Henning and Nate Henning will make up the boys’ team at Districts, while Carol Wolff and Kaylee Clark qualified for the girls’ tournament.  "I am so pumped that we have seven golfers continuing on and have been so impressed with the growth of all 10 this season," says Brad.
