On Thursday, May 20, the Bulldogs traveled to the Little Crow Golf Course in New London to scrimmage the New London-Spicer team and also become familiar with the sub-section course. The course has a 36-36, par-72 layout. The weather was great for 18 holes of golf.
Since it was mostly for practice, not all scores were reported. Those shooting well were Lynn Stoneburner, 91; Mary Frandson, 92; Sally Heitke, 96; and Katie Wright, 103. Heitke shot an outstanding 45 on the back nine.
The Bulldogs got a feel for the course, which is where they were on Monday, May 24, for sub-section play. Results will appear in next week's Press.
