What a tremendous showing we had at the 30 team Gerry Smith Invitational held at the Montgomery golf course last Thursday. In a lightning delayed start the girls JV started the Tigers out in a great effort finishing in 5th place. Haley Witt led the way finishing in 20th place followed by teammate Trinity Webb in 30th place. Freshman Thea Iverson(40), 8th graders Jessica Bruggemeier(45), and Jamie Zahn(56), rounded out the top 5.
Next up were the boys JV finishing in 1st place with 41 points. Kyle Siemon led the way finishing in 4th overall with Max Hughes just behind in 5th. Juniors Sam Gregory(9), Derek May(10), and Taylor Witt(13) rounded out the scoring for the Tigers. The JV boys become the first Belle Plaine Tiger squad to ever win the Gerry Smith. Congratulations!
Senior Janessa Meuleners led the girls varsity to a 5th place finish taking 2nd overall in a time of 15:40. Juniors Danika Schroeder(28), and Alissa Schultz(31) crossed the line next, followed by freshman Skylee Schwingler(66, and 8th grader Cassie Stolt(71). Hanna Witt and Courtney Fogarty rounded out the girls varsity squad. Fifth is the highest we have ever placed at the Gerry Smith on the girls side.
In the boys varsity race Brendan Mackedanz(29) led the boys to a 7th place team finish. Junior Dylan Bigaouette(49), and senior Carter Olson(54), followed with Sophomore Kellen Bergs(57), and senior Tyler Schumacher(58), rounding out the scoring. 8th grader Eliot Rudd(63), and Junior Carter Corl(85), completed the varsity line up. This was an outstanding finish to a very competitive boys team.
In the junior high boys 8th grader Jesse Barringer led the team to a second place finish earning a medal by placing 3rd overall. He was followed by 7th graders Drew Hastings(12), and Ben Hundsader(14). Eighth grader Braydon Setterquist(15) was just behind with Tristan Cruz(37), rounding out the scoring for the junior high. The young kids ran well many were close to their personal bests. This is the highest finish we have ever had in the boys junior high.
To finish off the meet we had the girls junior high finish in 4th place. They were led by Mackenna Hermann with a medal earning 2nd place finish. She was followed by fellow 7th grader Emily Berger in 16th place. Kate Wright and Emma Reed rounded out the scoring for the Tigers in 31st and 78th places respectively. Fellow eighth graders Nicole Lundsten and McKayla O'Laughlin also ran. The girls had a terrific showing setting a very high bar for the rest of the season.
