Wildcats Golf
Perhaps it was just one of those days for members of the Wildcats’ golf team as they played a preview tournament Tuesday at the Rockwall Golf and Athletic Club, site of next Monday and Tuesday’s district golf tournament. Wildcats Golf Coach Chris Owens says his team shot a 325 and he says he was a little disappointed with that. He hopes the score will serve as a wake up call for his golfers. Coach Owens says no one played terribly but he says everyone was a little off, scoring 5 or 6 strokes more than usual. He hopes for lots of improvement next Monday and Tuesday. Tuesday the Wildcats were led by Caleb Lewis with a 79. Alex Motes shot 80. Carter Lewis carded an 82. Andrew Escobar shot 84. Matt Calhoun had an 85 and Cameron Morris shot 87.
Lady Cats Golf
Three members of the Lady Cats’ golf team were able to participate in a district preview tournament Tuesday at Rockwall Golf and Athletic Club. The Rockwall course will host the district tournament next Monday and Tuesday. The Lady Cats lost one team member due to injury and a second player could not play Tuesday because of testing. It was a rough day for the three who did play according to Lady Cats Golf Coach Whitney Spigener. She said the course is a tough one and players also had to battle sprinkles and wind. Coach Spigener said Morgan Landers was 17 over through four holes and shot a 105. Coach Spigener said Landers was optimistic that she can improve on that a lot next week. Alissa Sotelo shot a 117 and Emma Lane had a 133. Coach Spigener is hoping some of her players can break through to the regional tournament as individuals at the district tournament. She said Texas High, Pine Tree and Hallsville are expected to be strong at the district tournament next week.
