The Sutton Fillies golf team had a busy opening week of action last week, as after placing fourth as a team at the Doniphan- Trumbull Invite, Aug. 26, the Fillies headed west for Kearney, to take on the field of teams in the Kearney Catholic Invite, Aug. 28, played on Kearney’s Meadowlark Hills Golf Course in west Kearney.
Senior Mia Ochsner paced Sutton in Kearney, and was the lone medalist for the Fillies, as she placed seventh individually with an 18-hole 91. Ochsner opened her day on the front nine with a 44 and wound up her round with a 47 on the back nine. Grand Island Central Catholic’s Kenzie Clausen was the top medalist in the tournament, firing a 75 to edge out second place medalist Kaylee Olsen of Gothenburg, who shot a 78.
Rounding out the field for Sutton was Shepleigh Orht, who narrowly missed the top 15 medalists, as Ohrt placed 16th overall with a 106. Ohrt opened with a 55 on the front nine and shaved four strokes off of her first round score to shoot a 51 on the back nine.
