PHS Golf Falls Just Short of Lansing Catholic

On Tuesday afternoon, the varsity boy’s golf team played in their fourth of six White Division jamborees at Lansing Catholic’s second home course - Groesbeck. For the second time in four jamborees, the Raiders came up just two strokes shy of taking down divisional leading Lansing Catholic Central.

The Cougar’s shot team score of 172 to Portland’s season’s, nine-hole best score of 174. Ionia finished in third with a 185. Charlotte’s score of 210 took fourth and Eaton Rapids had a 254. Lansing Sexton did not enter a team in yesterday’s match.

Scoring for the Raiders was: Zach Pier with a three over par 39. A trio of Raiders – Ethan Getchell, Jared Thomas and Hayden Getchell all carded bogey rounds of 45.

The varsity golf team returns right back to links on Wednesday to compete in the fifth CAAC White Division jamboree at Shadow Ridge in Ionia.
