Atlantic boys District Golf Scores

Sports

May 20th, 2021 by admin

3A District at Orange City
05/20/2021

Braden Smith 79 tied 10th
Drey Newell 80 tied 14th
Garrett McLaren 93 tied 29th

Atlantic Head Coach Ed DenBeste “Good to see our boys play in a good level course with some great competition. Braden hit the ball well today. The change in drivers was good for him. He had a solid front and better back. Parred the last three holes which is a great score. Drey had a rough start. Triple on the first hole but came around and settled down. Needed to par or birdie the last two holes to have a shot. Garrett had some struggles today. Good experience for him and we hope this will help him into next year.”
