The Oak Harbor High School boys golf team shot just well enough to eke out a win in a four-team match at the Whidbey Golf Club Monday, March 16.
“There were a lot of high scores,” Oak Harbor coach David Smith said, “but we won.”
The Wildcats finished with 450 strokes, two better than Lake Stevens and three better than Monroe. Edmonds-Woodway had 473.
Oak Harbor was led by Raiden Poe’s 82, the third-best individual score. Monroe’s Owen Senner took medalist honors with a 77.
Mason Dieter was next for the Wildcats with an 84, followed by Aaron Kelley (89), Ben Fikse (97), Steven Timm (98) and Mark Rayray (107).
“Some of the kids started badly and let it get to their heads,” Smith said. “Others didn’t and recovered.”
Oak Harbor and Glacier Peak face host Everett at the Legion Course at 1 p.m. Tuesday, March 24.
