Girls
The Lisbon girls’ golf team edged Easton Valley by one stroke 175 to 176 on Tuesday, April 15, at Kernoustie Golf Course.
“A great early-season challenge for our girls,” Lisbon coach Andy Kahl said. Easton Valley qualified for state in Class 1A last spring. “The girls showed up focused and ready to play.”
Kyla Kahl led the Lions with a season-low 40, followed by Eryn Jackson with a 43.
“Each meet, I can see Kyla is gaining confidence and getting more and more comfortable on the course,” Coach Kahl said. “It was a fun meet to be a part of and I saw great golf from both teams.”
Jackson was medalist against Calamus-Wheatland, which didn’t have enough golfers to post a team score Monday, April 14.
“It was really tough playing conditions with the wind and chilly temps, but I was proud of how the girls battled,” Coach Kahl said.
