Teeing off the Season
By: Lilianna McMannis
Both the boys and girls golf teams have started their seasons. The girls golf team started the season on August 20th with a home match against Red Bud. And the boys on August 21st with an away match against Metro East Lutheran. Both teams are very young this year and have no seniors on either team. Even though the girls lost their first match, Gwynn Robison, in the first match of her high school career, had the best score out of the Dupo team. On September 9th, the girls traveled to Wood River and beat Roxana by five strokes.
Tanner Francis did the best out of the boys in their first match shooting a 54. The golf team only has eight boys and that includes four freshmen. Boys’ Coach Weier said, “I’ve been very impressed with how the freshmen have been doing.” The girls’ next match is today in Red Bud. The boys will have their next match tomorrow at home against New Athens.
