to Mobridge.
There
are 16 girls on the team with six returning letterwinners.
The
returning girls who lettered are Rylee Root, Gracie Root, Kelbi
Meiners, CiCi Watson, Tessa Mann and Devan Dougherty.
The
only senior who graduated last year was Brennan Bachmann so this
year’s team will have a lot of experience. Added to that will be
some younger players who will help out the team.
There
are two seniors—Emma Jorgensen and Marissa Meiners.
Coaching
the team are Jim Halverson, who is the head coach and Elizabeth
Jankauskas.
The
girls have been practicing inside at the Winner Community Center due
to the cold and very windy conditions. The girls are hoping the wind
will die down and they can get on the course at Winner Country Club
before making the long trip to Mobridge.
Last
year the girls won the region tournament and placed third at the
state meet. Rylee Root was the top placer at state as she took 11th.
This
year the regional is in Mitchell and the state meet is at Bakker
Crossing, just south of Sioux Falls.
The
girls are looking for a good season and will enjoy the chance to be
outside.
