For the girls, there were no complete team scores. Kayla Goblirsch was medalist with a 43. Coming in 2nd and 3rd in the meet were Liz Schwint (45) and Sam Price (52) from Sleepy Eye United. These rounds were personal bests for both Liz and Sam. Emma Currans of SEU finished with a round of 73.

It was so nice to see these two on top of their game tonight. Not only that, but to see them both just having a great time golfing was so good to see.

On the boys side, Sleepy Eye United picked up another pair of wins over NUC and BLHS with a team score of 170.

Toby Weiss of SEU was medalist with a round of 39. Other scores for SEU included: Carson Erickson (40), Logan Netzke (42), and Jack Nelson (49).

Golf: Dacotah Ridge Invitational

The SEU golf team traveled to Dacotah Ridge on Monday for an 18-hole invitational with Springfield, New Ulm Cathedral, and Wabasso. For those that are familiar with Dacotah Ridge, it was no surprise that the wind was howling and the course was playing quite tough. However it was nice to finally have a warm day for a golf meet.

The boys shot a 339 on their way placing in first place and defeating their three competitors. The 3-0 finish on the day improves their record to a perfect 37-0 on the year.

The highlight of the day for me no doubt was seeing Jack shoot a personal best 39 on the back nine. He was hitting some really impressive shots and recovered well after hitting a few bad ones. Jack is one of the most coachable kids you will find, so seeing him having the type of breakthrough he had today was really cool to see.

SEU: 339

Carson Erickson: 81

Logan Netzke: 85

Toby Weiss: 86

Jack Nelson: 87

Springfield: 356

Notable Golfers: Christopher Thram (81) and Mavrick Winkelmann (82)

NU Cathedral: 390

Notable Golfers: Logan Haala (79 – medalist)

Wabasso: 431

On the girls side, only 3 golfers competed. Liz Schwint, Sam Price, and Meriden Andres shot 114, 115, and 138.

Sleepy Eye Boys Golf Team earns Conference Championship, Mages honored as Coach of Year

The Sleepy Eye United boys and girls finished up the third leg of the Tomahawk Conference tournament yesterday in impressive fashion.

The Sleepy Eye United girls hosted the third Tomahawk Conference tournament and the boys traveled to Farmers Golf & Health Club in Sanborn.

At Sleepy Eye Golf Club, Kayla Goblirsch of New Ulm Cathedral finished her quest to become conference champion with a score of 86. Goblirsch won the first and third conference tournaments. Nadine Clobes of MVL finished in second with a 91, and finished second overall in the conference, after finishing second, first, and second in the conference meets.

For Sleepy Eye United, Liz Schwint had another solid performance, carding a 106 to finish tied for 3rd on the day with MVL’s Lili Mohror. Mohror finished in 3rd overall and Schwint 4th. Rounding out the top 7 and earning all conference honors included Morgan Engholm of Cedar Mountain in 5th, Abbie Riederer of MVL in 6th, and Olivia Merseth of MVL in 7th. Earning honorable mention were GFW’s Jenna Schweiss (8th) and Marti Jacobson (10th) along with Meriden Andres of Sleepy Eye United (9th).

MVL completed the conference sweep, as they won the third and final conference tournament with a team score of 435. Cedar Mountain and Sleepy Eye United finished in second and third.

Sleepy Eye United (510):

*Liz Schwint 106

*Meriden Andres 122

*Sam Price 127

*Emma Currans 155

On the boys side, Sleepy Eye United completed their sweep of the conference tournaments with an impressive score of 327. Sleepy Eye United was led by Toby Weiss (77), Logan Netzke (78), Carson Erickson (86), and Jacob Schultz (86). The boys struggled early in the day, but eventually settled in and came out on top, as Springfield finished in second place, 28 strokes behind (team score 355).

I was really impressed with how all the guys battled today, especially Logan Netzke. Netzke started the day +7 through six holes, but was able to turn things around and play the final 12 holes at one under to finish the tournament at +6 (78) for a third place finish on the day.

It’s exactly the type of thing I emphasize over and over to the guys. Just take things one shot at a time and move onto the next shot and the next hole if things aren’t going well. They’re all talented enough golfers that they can turn things around in the end.

Netzke’s impressive turnaround ended up giving him a 3rd place finish on the day. Toby Weiss played solid throughout the day on his way to a 77 (+5 – 2nd place) and Mavrick Winkelmann’s impressive even par 72 earned him first place overall and Tomahawk Conference Player of the Year.

The Sleepy Eye United boys all played impressively well in this year’s conference tournaments, as four earned all-conference honors and one earned honorable mention. (See below)

1st – Mavrick Winkelmann (Springfield)

2nd – Logan Haala (NU Cathedral)

3rd – Toby Weiss (SE United)

4th – Carson Erickson (SE United)

5th – Logan Netzke (SE United)

6th – Logan Martin (GFW)

7th – Christopher Thram (Springfield)

8th – Aidan Nelsen (Cedar Mountain)

9th – Jacob Schultz (SE United)

10th – Will Carlson (Wabasso)

Finishing Honorable Mention (10th-15th)

11th – Allen Arneson (SE United)

12th – Ben Pearson (MVL)

13th – Jackson Jemmings (Cedar Mt)

14th – Jayden Goblish (Wabasso)

15th – Cale Peterson (BLHS)

I seriously can’t find the words to describe how proud I am of each and every one of these kids. The best part of my day is when I get to go to the golf course each afternoon and work with them to get better each and every day.
