Raider golfers play Gamble Sands

Raider golfers competed with golfers from around the state at the Gamble Sands Invitational in Brewster last week.

Darin Whiteman finished 18 holes of golf in only 76 strokes at the event, placing 11th out of 131 golfers April 17. “A very good result on a super challenging course,” remarked Head Coach Steve Files.

“It was a terrific event again this year,” Files said. “A great experience for our players to meet and compete against some of the best golfers from around the state. It was ideal weather, other than some gusty winds at times. I thought our whole team performed really well.”

Conner Emerson finished the course in 90 strokes, followed by Daxton Whiteman in 104, Derek Whiteman in 105, and Levi Shanklin-Bob in 141.

The Raiders next event is at Alta Lake Golf Course in Pateros May 1, starting at 2:30 p.m.
