(Dunlap, IA) — It was not the ideal conditions for golf on Friday but the first round of the Girls Regionals was played nevertheless. Boyer Valley hosted the Class 1A, Region 2B meet and only three golfers were able to break 100. Earlham’s Savannah Charlet and Piper Koberg each shot a 95 and Charlet won on a tiebreak. It was Charlet’s 17th birthday. Reese Miller of Boyer Valley was one stroke back with a 96. Rounding out the top 6 were Olivia Nixt of Earlham (103), Mallory Schroeder of Coon Rapids Bayard (105) and Presley Koberg of Earlham (106) — the top six qualify for the regional finals.
Earlham won the team competition with a 399 and Coon Rapids Bayard was 2nd with a 450 to advance to the next round.
CAM was led by Kaitlyn Platt who was 17th with a 113; Brooklynn Zimmerline was 22nd with a 118.
Riverside finished 3rd in the team competition with a 461, low round for the Bulldogs was Jadyn Beckman with a 110 which was good enough for 10th place.
