(Release from the Prairie Panthers Golf Team)

The Prairie City Golf Team competed at the 1A 2A 3A Special District 4 district on May 6th & 7th at Quail Ridge Golf Course in Baker City. there were 15 teams with over 65 players competing over two days. Sawyer won the district title and will be competing at the State Tournament at Emerald Valley Country Club, just south of Eugene in Cresswell Oregon May13th & 14th. Only the top 3 teams in the district make it to state. The Panthers made a monumental come back on day two. The team was 20 strokes behind the 3rd place team after the first day. At the end of the tournament, the team had pulled within 7 just missing out on third place. Weather conditions were brutal with cold temperatures, wind and rain on day one. Day two brought high swirling winds making the course very difficult to play.

I am extremely proud of the team that represented Prairie City. The team was made up of Seniors Trey Brown, Bridger Walker, Cayden Howard and Tucker Wright along with Sophomore Sawyer Quinton.

Two-day scores below:

Sawyer 156

Trey 213

Bridger 226

Tucker 225

Cayden 225

Overall, a solid season with everyone on the team lowering their scores. The team has a solid base coming back in 2025.
