| Golf team is swinging into form Posted: 01 Sep 2010 10:42 AM PDT By Mark Jones/Sports Editor The Williston High School golf team continues to make progress in the early part of the 2010 season with a fifth-place at the Mandan Invitational on Thursday. "I was really pleased," said Williston golf coach Dennis Healy. "Our third leading scorer went to help her sister move to Grand Forks." Williston played Thursday's round without the services of Abby Wilt. Williston golfer Kayla Barke shot a season-best 86 to pace Williston in Thursday's action. Anna Peterson finished the day with a 98 for the Lady Coyotes. Peterson and Barke weren't the only Williston golfers to show improvement Thursday. Rachel Anderson and Irelyn Huntley each cut down on their strokes. "I was proud of Irelyn and Rachel," Healy said. Bismarck Century placed first in the team standings with a 331. Jamestown's Laura Kraft earned the medalist honors. "There's room for improvement," Healy said. "They've got a ways for them to go to feel comfortable about golfing the way they should." Williston will now play at the Turtle Mountain Community High School Invitational on Monday at the Rolla Golf Course.

| Golf team keeps building on young foundation Posted: 01 Sep 2010 06:11 AM PDT by Matthew Fahr Armada head varsity golf coach John King will continue the building process he began last season with a young, raw group of golfers. His girl's team will look to improve on a 1-1 start to the season with another set of up-and-comers and two solid captains. Seniors Haley Waterstraat and Elizabeth Crawford will lead the Tigers this fall and helped them to a record start two weeks ago. In a match versus Imlay City at Castle Creek Golf course, Armada posted their lowest score ever - 193. Their effort was not rewarded with their first win of the season as the Spartans posted a score of 179. "Their number one shot was an amazing round for them, but I was proud of our girls to come out like that in the first match," said King. Sophomore Samantha Tarakoff led the Tigers with a round of 41 followed by Waterstraat with a 43 and a 48 from Crawford. Sophomore newcomer Jill Reuter rounded out the four Tiger scores with a 61. Reuter will add to a list of young players, some who made appearances last season and some who are taking to the course for the first time in 2010. Last year's sophomores, Stephanie Eichkholt, Tia Godin, Sarah Sowinski and Katie Bubel were first time players for King. This year, freshmen Elly Karam, Jamie Penzien and Kelsey Motoligin will try to make their mark along with sophomore Lauren Geodtel. "Jill will be a solid member of this year's team and for years to come," King said of the sophomore. "Some of them are beginners though and are going to take some time to mature and learn the game." As the younger players learn their game, both mentally and physically, the Tigers will lean heavily on co-captains Waterstraat and Crawford. "Haley is our leader out there spiritually," King said. "Liz is still learning, but she is a great leader and always getting better. The biggest key for any golfer, and they are not different, is consistency, and that will be the key to our season." The Tigers evened their season record with a win over Women's Independent Thumb League foe Lutheran Northwest on Thursday. At the Hamptons Golf Course in Rochester Hills, Armada posted a score of 212 compared to 246 for Northwest. "All of our girls are fast learners, but a consistent number four starter is what I am looking for right now, and it is up for grabs," said the coach. With only three other teams in the league, King has had to put some tough competition on his schedule. The Tigers will face Romeo and Lutheran North in the coming weeks and wrap up their season with Mount Morris. The season holds a stiff learning curve for King's team, but he is confident they are up for the challenge. "They are all becoming believers," he said. "Now it is a matter of what they can put together out on the course." Contact Matthew Fahr at (586) 716-8100, ext. 300 or at matt.fahr@voicenews.com.
