It was a windy afternoon at Riverview Golf Course outside New Richland Tuesday, April 3 as the Panther Boys’ Golf Team opened up their season as the visiting Triton Cobras won the match 165-194. Cobra Senior Andre Joyce was medalist with a 38.

Jake Langlie led the Panther scoring with a 45. Spencer Hanna shot 47 and Macoy Schwierjohann had a 48. Sam Grothem and freshman Cole Lenort had matching 54s. Sam Nafe carded a 55.

“We did not play up to our ability,” said coach Brad Root. “We need to play better in order to be competitive.”

Thursday, April 5, the Faribault BA boys and girls golf squads paid a visit to Riverview and went home on the losing end of both matches. The boys snuck by 185-190, while the girls tallied 229. The BA girls did not have a full squad.

The Panthers’ Spencer Hanna and Jake Langlie tied for medalist along with BA’s Jack Ford at 44. Cole Lenort shot eight strokes better than he did on Tuesday with a 46. Sam Nafe (51,) Sam Grothem (52) and Macoy Schwierjohann (54) were the other varsity scores.

On the girls side, Frankie McGuire of BA was low with a 52. Maddie Reed led the Panthers with a 53. Michaela Hansen was one shot back at 54. Brina Bergland carded a 58. Brenna Hagen (64,) Maddy Schwierjohann (67) and Liz Eder (75) were among the field.

“The boys and girls both won,” said coach Root. “However, no one is playing very well.”
