Results are in - congratulations to WHS Sophomore Payton Ginter who finished 13th Tuesday (just 1 stroke out of top 10) at the weather-delayed State 4A Girls Golf Tournament in Hutchinson. Payton had an 89 on the day, 18 over par. Wichita Trinity's Hanna Hawks finished 1st @ 68, 3 under. Awesome job ladies!!
"91" girls participated in and finished the tournament.
For the 2nd year in a row, Sophomore Payton Ginter has qualified for the State 4A Girls Golf Tournament. Last year as a Freshman, Payton competed at State and finished 45th out of 90 golfers, shooting a 105 at the Lake Shawnee Golf Course in Topeka.
WHS's pioneering Girls Golf team headed to Hays on Monday for Regional 4A action. The weather wasn't very golf-like for sure, cloudy, winds gusting to 35mph and cool temps in the low 50's - not good golfing weather at all. Wellington Freshman Payton Ginter buckled down though and shot a 109, a score that would place her in 12th out of about 50 participants and would advance her on to the State 4A Girls Golf Tournament in Topeka coming up on Monday, Oct. 16th.
The WHS Varsity Girls Golf Squad was in action Tuesday at Sierra Hills Golf Course against some larger schools and tougher competition. As a team WHS finished 9th out of 10 and Payton Ginter, a WHS Freshman, finished 8th individually which is quite good!! Some of the other schools in competition included Andover Central, Andale, Buhler, Eisenhower, Maize, Valley Center and others. Here were the individual scores for WHS: (is a par 3 course, par was 58)
Payton Ginter 77
Alisa Walters 91
