LEBANON
- Crawfordsville High School's girls golf team earned a top-three
finish at Saturday's Western Boone Invitational at Cool Lake Golf
Course.
Connersville won the 15-team meet with a 342, followed by Lebanon (345) and Crawfordsville (378).
North Montgomery (428) placed 10th, while county- and conference rival Southmont (429) finished one stroke back in 11th.
Four
Crawfordsville players - juniors Courtney Hamitlon (90), Kaitlyn Carey
(93), sophomore Clancy Wolf (97) and senior Alex Gasaway (98) - fired
rounds in the 90s.
"We had really consistent scores,"
Crawfordsville coach Darren Haas said. "Alex Gasaway came through with
a 98. I'm really proud of her. That's her first 18-hole round."
Senior Jenna Whalen led the Mounties with a 94, while senior Aubri Rush and junior Caitlin Williams each added 97s.
North
Montgomery faces Western Boone today, while Southmont travels to
Cloverdale on Tuesday and Crawfordsville takes on North Putnam and
Tri-West.
All in all,
it was a solid opening night for the Sagamore football squads. Conference teams
went 403 on Friday night with Tri-West not playing until Saturday.
North
Montgomery was perhaps the most impressive team. The Chargers demolished Benton
Central 47-0 behind a stifling defense and over 200 yards from running back
Elijah Dale. Western Boone grabbed some headlines by downing tradition rich
Sheridan 28-8. Lebanon served notice that their strong finish to last season
was not a fluke. The Tigers visited Lucas Oil Stadium and downed longtime rival
Mooresville 14-7. Finally, Frankfort’s defense was outstanding as the Hot Dogs
thumped Western 21-3. The linebacking corp was especially solid for Frankfort.
Southmont fell victim to 1A power Fountain
Central 41-19. The loss stings a little more because the Mustangs are coached
by former Mountie mentor Rick Malone. West Lafayette ruined Crawfordsville’s
opener 39-7 as the Devils showed they are still a power in 3A. Finally,
Danville fell 30-14 to Hendricks County rival Plainfield
