Its been a tough season...but...

Looking at rain today, we start our last 18 hole conference meet today at noon...here at Laona, Nicolet Country Club...and may serve as practice playing in rain for the bigger day tomorrow, Regionals at Oak Crest...ALSO slotted for rain, thunderstorms.

As I understand...if nine holes manages to get played before being called, by lightning for example, then the Regionals will stick as having been played out.  So, playing your best first nine holes is most important to be sure.

With all the winter we had, we've had to play each meet as 18 holes, each meet playing out as two meets to make up for missed dates.  We lost a whole month of play this year due to snow and cold.  Yet...despite this difficulty, Laona Kelly's have managed to hold second place, first being Crandon and third Wabeno.  Here are standings thus far-

Crandon             42
Laona                 35
Wabeno             31
Elcho                  23
Three Lakes      14
Pembine            14
Florence              4

points are awarded by number of participating teams.  Thus number one at a meet earns 7pts...number two 6 pts, etc., and totalled.

Stroke totals as follows, (remember this is not counting today's final conference meet)

Crandon        1,111
Laona            1,201
Wabeno        1,219
Elcho             1,321
Three Lakes 1,163  (had to miss one nine hole part of a meet)
Pembine       1,592
Florence          498  (missed meets)

As low scorers in our conference-

Sam Belland (Crandon)       206   1st
Kim Mentz  (Laona)              217    2nd
Robbie Rocole  (Wabeno)  233    3rd

for our four other varsity players...scores and placement in the conference are as follows-

Shania Simonis          249     11th
Sam Trebtoske           256     12th
Josh Chitko                 264     13th
Aaron Enders              270      16

out of a field of 27 varsity players from seven school districts

I'll make some adjustments to the conference end results when I have the stats.  We are of course hoping to play our level best at Regionals tomorrow, and win a birth to move on to Sectionals....
