Johnsburg High School Golf

The Skyhawks competed in the 13th annual Fran Noyes Invite at the Oak Club in Genoa. It drizzled a bit on the way there and looked like rain all morning, but no rain came and the Skyhawks played well again finishing in 4th place out of 22 teams.

The unique Stableford scoring let each player score for their team on every hole regardless of how they had on previous holes. Jake Arden led the Hawks with 28 points and an 11th place finish out of 109 golfers. Players received 4 points for a birdie, 2 points for a par and 1 point for a bogey. Tyler Chambers finished at 17th place with 24 points.

Varsity Scores
Arden 28 points (38-42-80)
Chambers 24 points (40-44-84)
Pries 19 points (41-47-88)
Goulet 19 points (43-45-88)

• It's hard to believe, but the season is nearly over. 1 more dual match, 1 varsity tournament, Varsity conference tournament, F/S conference tournament and regionals.

We can have our awards night wherever we would like. I am looking to have it on Thursday, October 22. If any one has any good ideas or place to have the awards night please contact Coach Frey.

The Skyhawks played well again, but the strength of the Fox Valley Conference was evident as JHS dropped their match with the Knights tonight at Chapel Hill 160 to 162. Tyler Chambers had his second 37 of the week to lead the Skyhawks. Jake Arden added a 40 and Colin Goulet had his best round in the last 19 days shooting a 41. The loss drops the Hawks to 3-8 in the Fox Valley and puts them in 9th place heading into next week's conference tournament. They are now 6-8 in dual matches and 17-8 overall. The varsity golf team finishes the Fox Valley Conference schedule with a conference average of 167.2 which is 1.6 strokes better than last year's conference average and is the best conference average in the past 8 years.
