SULLY – The Braves golf team saved its best scoring round for the Class 1A Sectional on Wednesday, May 8.
Unfortunately, it was just two strokes shy of sending the full Braves team on to the Monday, May 13 District meet.
The Braves shot a sizzling 317 at Diamond Trail Golf Course, but, over 18 holes by four players, that was two strokes shy of where Montezuma needed to be.
Hillcrest Academy won with a 313, and BGM grabbed the second team spot with a 315.
Cruz De Jong and Jack Erselius each fired a 78, while Brady Boulton shot 80 and Max Anderson had an 81.
On the plus side, the 78s shot by De Jong and Erselius qualified them as individuals. They’ll next be in action on Monday, May 13, at the District meet at Heritage Oaks in Wapello.
