Ward Has Big Round: Royals Win at Glen Annie
The Royals took their game to DP’s home course Glen Annie Golf Club with the words “must win” in their minds, and came through with an 8 stroke victory, led by Dodge Ward’s medalist round of 69! SM is tied with Buena for 2nd in the Channel League with a 4-2 record. A 2nd place finish in the league guarantees a CIF berth.
Coach Siordia was pleased with this match: ” Today was a great win for our team. Once again we had a great practice yesterday and it paid off today. Our team scores are finally starting to show how good we really are. A lot of people didnt think this team had a chance but I always knew this team was special. We are very young, very talented and VERY motivated. I cant tell you how proud I am to be the coach at SM.”
SM Scores:
Dodge Ward 69
Thayer White- 72
Scott Bradford- 74
Kyle Rieb-73
John Etsell- 78
Dodge Ward has come a long way and all his hard work paid off today. He played a very solid round today making 3 birdies and one bogey in route to his two under 69. Another great story was freshman Thayer White. Thayer posted his low round of the season on a day when it ended up making a big difference for the Royals.
next week the Royals face a powerhouse Dons tem, followed by Ventura to round out the Channel league season.
