A Look At The Links

Last week's golf competition that was supposed to take place both in Grace and Soda Springs was canceled due to one of our late Spring snow/rain storms here in Caribou County.  That competition has been rescheduled for Thursday this week.  With all that being said in this week's edition of A Look At The Links we only have a head to head match between the Cardinals and the Beavers from American Falls.  The two schools each competed with both their boys and girls varsity and JV teams.  The match took place at the Oregon Trail Country Club in Soda Springs.  The Beavers have solid teams that really challenged the Cardinal teams that have been on a bit of a roll lately.

The Lady Cardinals played very well in the match play format with both the varsity and JV squads taking victories as a team.  The varsity team dominated and won by eighty strokes.  Jayden Parker and Tara Vedder once again led the way for the Lady Cardinals.  In JV play the Beavers only had three players so they fell short of the number to earn a team score.  However the top three Cardinals JV players outshot the Beaver JV players proving to get the best of the visitors on the day.  The JV squad was led by Addie Smith and Taylee Tingey who tied for the best score.

In the boys competition the score was a little closer but in the end the varsity team won the team score by thirty-six strokes.  The varsity team continues to stay tightly grouped in terms of scoring and was led by a different player for the third week in a row.  This time it was Kayden Peterson on top followed closely by Preston Ozburn and Brycen Peterson.  The JV squad followed suit winning their match by twenty four strokes and were led by Eli Byrum.  In fact Byrum did so well he tied the second best score from the varsity team.

The Cardinal golfers will continue their week by splitting between the Soda Springs and Grace courses on Thursday.
