    The boy’s team of Sean Davies, Jarred Potter, Shane Gwinner and Mitchell Toffan finished in the middle of the pack. Hird says because members of the boys team all play hockey and were busy with fall tryouts, they were not able to get much practice time on the links.
    At St. Anthony’s, Madison Colberg finished in the top 10. Jessie Carrier also competed well. Michelle Fournier coached the girl’s team.
    Jay Mulgrew coached the boy’s team made up of Brandon Gruber, Andrew Stedman, Conner Bosch and Ryan Cardamone. They also played well finishing in the pack with all bettering a score of 100.
