Three KCII area boys and girls golf teams met at the Riverside Casino and Golf Resort Thursday in a non-conference triangular when Mid-Prairie, Highland and Lone Tree squared off. In the boys competition, Mid-Prairie won the team title with a score of 179, their lowest recorded team score on the season. The Golden Hawks had the meet medalist and medalist runner-up with Dominic McCain shooting a 40 and Warren Scarff a 44. Those two spoke after the meet about their day. “First hole I drew my ball over to the left side of the fairway. From there I was able to wedge it up there within about 20 feet on the second tier of the green. I was able to hit the putt, dead center of the cup. I have never trusted my putter more than I have on that shot.” “For me, I wouldn’t say there wasn’t one specific shot or hole, I played pretty decent all the way around today. I pared one and two and eight. I had a double bogey in there, and the rest were bogeys so it worked out.”
The Mid-Prairie Golden Hawk girls golf team traveled to Muscatine Wednesday for the River Valley Conference Championships. The Hawks finished in seventh place of 14 competing squads with their round of 458, tying with Tipton. The Golden Hawks won the tiebreaker over the Tigers on the fifth score cardback. Mid-Prairie was led on the day by Madi Davidson’s 111. She talked after the meet about her round. “My goal coming in was to shoot under 120. I did that so it was a pretty good day. My irons played well today. I struggled putting but the rest of my game was pretty spot on.”
