Observations all along the line - Kimball & the Southern Panhandle First
The Kimball Boy's golf team captured the team title in winning the SPVA Conference championship in their latest conquest of an undefeated season to date. The Longhorns shot a solid round of 308 for the win with Perkins County runnerup with 324, followed by St. Pats with 330, Sutherland 379 and Hershey 386. The conference tournament was held on the Sutherland golf course.
The Horns also took the top two individual spots as well with Jordan Greenwood winning out over teammate, Zane Anthony, in a five hole playoff after both Kimball golfers shot even par, chipping in on the 4th hole of the playoff for a birdie and Anthony draining a 25 putt to get his birdie. Greenwood got the win on the 5th hole of the playoff with his par.
Greenwood's round was 38-34=72 while Anthony's was 37-35=72. Dillon Wise claimed 4th place in the top ten medal group with a fine round of 38-41=79, Andrew McCloud was 2 strokes out of the top ten with his round of 40-45=85 and Izaac Reuter was 1 stroke back of McCloud at 43-43=86. Another solid team effort for the Longhorns in their final tournament before the District Tournament held this past Tuesday at Cambridge.
Kimball repeated as champions of both conferences they were involved in and were after a repeat of a district tournament title as well. Due to a print deadline, we will bring you our version of the District Tournament in next week's Observer sports.
