Soggy conditions didn’t deter the Bowie High School girls’ golf team from playing its own invitational on Monday.
The Lady Rabbits finished second in a field of six teams, recording a composite score of 225 in the process at Twisted Oaks Golf Club.
“It was about a 40-, 45-degree day and it was wet,” Bowie head coach Jonathon Horton said. “I didn’t hear any complaining from the girls, and they were properly prepared for it.”
The tournament was reduced to nine holes because of the weather, but the girls persevered and many finished with good results despite the weather.
Kylie Robinson was Bowie’s low score, firing a 51 for second place. Teammate Chloe Polk finished in a tie for fourth with a 54. Polk tied Carli Baustert from Vernon and Allison Marsh of Burkburnett.
Vernon won the team standings with a 213, and produced the medalist golfer in Emily Burrus, who carded a 46.
Stephanie Clement and Tessla Brewer also golfed for Bowie, with scores of 57 and 63 respectively.
