Left to Right: Coach Brady, David Martinez, Preston Rouse, Jeffrey Zatorski, Walker Bergen, Tyler Gardner, Charlie Wylie, and Richard Wager
Last week six Mustangs traveled up to Georgetown, TX to compete in the 6A State Championship. The tournament was hosted at Legacy Hills Golf Club and their staff did an amazing job preparing the golf course for the event. With rain in the forecast for both rounds, there was definite uncertainty with how smooth the tournament would go, how many rain delays, etc. It was the first visit to the State Championship for the team in 4 years and the first trip for all of the six guys who made the trip. Jeffrey Zatorski, Tyler Gardner, Preston Rouse, Walker Bergen, David Martinez, and Charlie Wylie all prepared well and proved to be in great form during the practice round on Sunday afternoon. The team goal was to get off to good starts early and be in a good position to make a run on day 2. Senior Jeffrey Zatorski led his team during the first round with a clean front nine including 8 pars and 1 birdie. There were a couple of speed bumps coming in after a rain delay, but a great opening round of 72 was big for his team. Junior Tyler Gardner also got off to a good start making the turn at 1-over par. His even par back nine was a great finish in some strong wind and helped him card an opening round of 73. David Martinez made a double bogey on his first hole, but played his last 17 holes tremendously at 1-under par and posted a first round score of 73. Huge comeback after a tough first hole for the freshman. Junior Walker Bergen got off to a solid start also carding an opening front nine score of 1-over par. After a birdie on ten and a double on the seventh hole, Walker finished strong with seven straight pars to shoot an opening round of 74. Junior Preston Rouse made the turn at 2-over, in solid shape heading into the back nine. After a birdie on the tenth hole, two bogeys on his last 8 holes, Preston carded an opening round of 75. After a first round team score of 292, the Mustangs sat in a tie for 4th place with Plano West. 9 shots back of first and only 2 shots back of second. The Mustangs got off to a hot start in the second round and with a ton of Memorial fans there to cheer them on it made it even more special. After nine birdies on the front, the team made the turn at 2-under par and found themselves only 3 shots back of the lead. The team struggled on its last 3 holes, but that front nine put them in a great position to earn a medal. Jeffrey Zatorski made a 4 foot birdie putt on the last hole of his career to guarantee a medal for the Mustangs, now they just had to sit and watch the last wave of teams to see what color it would be. Unfortunately, the field would have to wait quite a while to see the outcome. Several cells of weather came through the area with lightning all over. Finally, at about 7:45 PM the last three groups were able to finish. The Mustangs finished in 2nd place with a score of 10-over par 586, edging out Vandegrift by one stroke and The Woodlands by two. Zatorski led the mustangs with his rounds of 72-71, Gardner shot 73-73, Martinez 73-74, Bergen 74-76, and Rouse 75-76. This capped off the best season in program history as District Champions, Regional Champions, and State Runner-Up. This was possible because of everyone on the team and all of the guys constantly pushing the ones in front of them to be better. What a special group of young men and an amazing accomplishment! Thank you to all of our seniors for all they have done and best of luck to them down the road! WIN THE DAY!

The team of Jeffrey Zatorski, Tyler Gardner, Preston Rouse, Walker Bergen, and David Martinez came from behind to claim the program’s second Regional Championship in 4 years! Both days proved to be tough conditions on a golf course where the Mustangs have seen tremendous success this season, winning both the fall and spring regional preview events. All five guys finished inside the top 20 individually which was good enough for a 7 shot team victory! Freshman David Martinez was the low Mustang for the event finishing in a tie for 7th place with rounds of 72-72. David played solid throughout the entire event and was the only mustang who did not make a double bogey for the two days. Both Jeffrey Zatorski and Tyler Gardner both finished in a tie for 11th place. Zatorski shot rounds of 75-71 and Gardner shot 76-70. Both guys got off to shaky starts, but mounted huge comebacks that were huge for their team. Zatorski played his last 12 holes at 4 under par, while Gardner played his last 12 holes at 3 under par. His one under par round of 70 was the sub-par round for the mustangs and tied for the low round of day 2. Walker Bergen finished in a tie for 13th place with rounds of 76-72. Bergen did well to hold his first round together making four birdies in his middle eight holes. His second round was very steady, making 13 pars in very windy conditions. Preston Rouse finished in a tie for 17th place with rounds of 71-78. His first round of even par 71 was gigantic for the team to stay within striking distance headed into the second round. Preston made four birdies, an eagle, and led his team all day. With this team victory, the Mustangs have earned a spot in the 6A State Championship at Legacy Hills Golf Club in Georgetown next month! WIN THE DAY!

Traditions Club hosted the first round and Miramont Country Club the second. The wind was a major factor in the first round and the greens were the best they had been in a few years. Jeffrey Zatorski led his team the first day after a fast start. His 74 in those conditions was a very solid round. Tyler Gardner carded a 77, Walker Bergen 82, Devin Dinsmore 83, and Preston Rouse 91. The team score of 316 put the Mustangs in 5th place headed into the second round at Miramont. Day 2 played much different, a little more yet, slower and smoother greens, and much less wind. Jeffrey Zatorski’s round of 3-under par 69 was tied for the lowest round of the day, earning him second place for the event. The best individual result at this event since William Moll won the 13th Aggie Cup back in 2019. Preston Rouse had a tremendous bounce back round to shoot 75, Devin Dinsmore 76, Tyler Gardner 77, and Walker Bergen 78. The team score of 297 kept them in 5th place for the event, finishing 10 shots back of earning a medal. The next top varsity event is the Aggieland Match Play in College Station where the Mustangs look to defend their title from last year! Win The Day!

The Mustangs traveled up to The Woodlands this past week to compete in the Vern Edwards Memorial Tournament, hosted by The Woodlands High School. The first round was played at The Woodlands Country Club- Tournament Course and the second round at the Player Course. Both courses are in phenomenal shape and presented a good challenge for everyone in the field. The team score of 318 was good enough to sit in 3rd place after round one. Spencer Gray’s round of 78 led the team with Will Brookby right behind him with a 79. Carson Kidd shot 80, Marshal Ramke 81, and Hunter Lee 86. The Player course proved to be a much more difficult task for almost all of the teams in round 2. Carson Kidd led the way with an 79, Marshal Ramke 80, Spencer Gray 84, Will Brookby 89, and Hunter Lee 98. The team score of 332 kept the Mustangs in 3rd place and earned them a bronze medal!

The varsity boys competed in the Oak Ridge Fall Classic up at Gleannloch Pines Golf Club right before Thanksgiving Break. The team included juniors Devin Dinsmore, Walker Bergen, Preston Rouse, Tyler Gardner, and freshman Charlie Wylie. The mustangs had their strongest showing of the year winning the event by a large margin! Not only did they take home the team victory, they also swept 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place medalist honors. Tyler Gardner finished in 1st with two fantastic rounds of 66-68, Charlie Wylie in 2nd with rounds of 70-66, and Preston Rouse in 3rd with his rounds of 66-75.

Montgomery Match Play Champs
Right to Left: Coach Brady, Walker Bergen, Spencer Gray, Erikson Pittman, Carson Kidd, Christopher Robishaw, David Martinez, Coach Wager
Six varsity mustangs competed in the Montgomery Match Play up in Bentwater over the weekend. The first round of 36 holes was cut short to 18 holes due to a strong cold front that blew in right around lunchtime. Luckily, the mustangs played phenomenal as a team in the first round, earning them the number 1 seed going into the match play portion on Friday! Christopher Robishaw and Walker Bergen led the team in the first round with rounds of 73, which gave them a share of the stroke play low medalist! Robishaw’s back nine of even par earned him the 1st place honors and Bergen was awarded 3rd place. Erikson Pittman and Spencer Gray performed nicely with rounds of 75 and 76, both very steady rounds with not a lot of difficulties. David Martinez fired a round of 80 and Carson Kidd 83. The team score of 297 was the low round of the day, by 7 shots. The championship match on Saturday was against the Highlanders from The Woodlands and proved to be a great matchup coming down to the last hole. Robishaw and Bergen continued their good play, winning both of their matches. Robishaw won 4&3 and Bergen 3&2. Freshman David Martinez got off to a hot start, as he was 4up in his match early on. He then finished off his opponent with a win on number 16 winning his match 3&2. Carson Kidd fought all day long, but his opponent brought his A-game making 3 birdies on the front nine. It was an uphill battle on the back nine and he lost his match 5&4. Heck of an effort all day long. Erikson Pittman got off to a hot start as well going 3 up in the first 8 holes, however his opponent turned it on heading into the back nine. Erikson fought up until hole 16 when his opponent closed the match out with a birdie, another great match and great effort! Spencer Gray was paired with Erikson and he found himself up very early in his match as well. Spencer did not have his best stuff, but he found a way to keep himself in the match late on the back nine. Dropping two clutch putts on the last two holes earned his team the winning ½ point to win the tournament! Phenomenal showing from top to bottom and a great team win!
Mustangs Finish 2nd at The Woodlands
A group of varsity boys played the same day as the JV boys, but at the Tournament Course at The Woodlands Country Club. Arguably, the best greens we have played on in years and the rest of the course was in phenomenal shape as well. The golf course showed its teeth all day and proved to be a very difficult test for the entire field. 36-holes were scheduled for the event; however, the weather cut it short and made it a 27-hole event. Marshal Ramke led his team with round of 75-37 and not far behind him was Devin Dinsmore shooting 75-39. Freshman Charlie Wylie had a good showing as well with rounds of 77-39. Preston Rouse shot rounds of 81-37, Tyler Gardner 82-43, and Jeffrey Zatorski 86-40. The team scores of 317-155 was good enough for a second place finish behind the home team of The Woodlands!
JV Boys take 2nd at April Sound
Some JV boys traveled up to April Sounds Country Club last week to compete in the Lake Creek Invitational. Sophomore William Rother led his team with a round of 87 and the team score of 361 was good enough for a solid 2nd Place finish! Sophomores Henry Shavlan and Cole Coolidge played their first tournament as Mustangs and shot 90 and 93. Bo Neuhaus shot 91 and Powell Jordan a 98. Up next for this group will be our hosted event at Cypress Lakes on November 2nd.
Mustang Freshmen Kick-Off 2020-2021 Season
All six of our freshman traveled over to Eagle Pointe Golf Club in Mount Belvieu to compete in the Barbers Hill Invite. This was the program's first tournament since February and it was great to get back out there and compete! Constant drizzle and cloud cover made the conditions difficult especially around the greens. Making an eagle and three birdies in his first 6 holes, David Martinez led the team with a solid round of 74 which was good enough to finish in a tie fifth place individually. Not far behind him were Kyle Krouse and Gray Gammill with rounds of 80 and 81. Charlie Wylie with an 83, Anthony Roa 86, and Cesar Garcia 88. The team score of 318 was good enough to finish 5th out of the 12 team field. Lots of talent in this freshman class and a bright program future!

April 19, 2020 Update
My Mustangs!
I hope you all are safe and well during this abnormal time. I know parents have received important information from Lisa Weir and Jennifer Blaine, but I wanted to reach out and give a little information myself. As you all know, golf should not be a priority right now. Everyone should take care of their loved ones and stay safe during times like these. We all need to control what we can and do so with a good attitude.
As of now all UIL activities and contests will resume no earlier Monday, May 4th. The UIL will be reevaluating the beginning dates for practices as they receive more information about schools resuming. We cannot have scheduled team practices during the time that schools are closed. So if you guys choose to practice, do so using all the safety precautions you can. You all have your practice drills book, a lot of those can be done at home by yourself. I will send out optional workouts throughout the coming weeks that you can complete if you choose to do so. Anything I send to you while we are out of school is optional and not required. Staying positive during a time like this is tough, but necessary. As always, never hesitate to reach out to me for anything.
I am looking forward to seeing everyone again soon and I will be praying for continued good health for our team’s families and loves ones.
Win the Day & Stay Safe,
Coach Brady

Tough Conditions in Galveston
This past weekend the second team traveled down to Galveston to play in the Wildcat Invite hosted by Clear Creek High School. Moody Gardens Golf Course played extremely difficult over the two days, with winds gusting up to 35 mph and the greens playing firm and fast. The first round showed winds out of the Northeast throughout the day, making the first nine holes tough. The mustangs fought hard, but the golf course simply won this round. However all the teams found the conditions to be difficult, so the team score of 337 was still good enough to be in 4th place headed into the second round. The mustangs started the second round only three shots out of the third place and needed a good day to make a move up the leaderboard. A much better start across the board on Saturday was key and the mustangs got it. Devin Dinsmore led his team the second day carding a phenomenal round of 74 in the Galveston winds. The second round of 325 was a solid 12 shot improvement! The two-day total, 662, was good enough for a 6th place finish. The in individual scores were Devin Dinsmore 82-74, Blake Jarvis 83-81, Marshal Ramke 81-86, Will Brookby 91-85, and Dylan Gardner 91-85. The Regional Preview is set for March 20-21 on two weeks and that will cap off the regular season for the Mustangs!
Second Place in Sugar Land
Left to Right: Jonah Lou, Nico Ryan, Jerry Zhao, Alex Hay, Carson Kidd
5 Mustangs traveled down to River Pointe Golf Club in Sugar Land for the Clements Varsity Invite. Along with the 125 player field, there were plenty of gators enjoying this great property! The team of Jonah Lou, Alex Hay, Jerry Zhao, Nico Ryan and Carson Kidd played smart and plotted their way around this golf course. With water on almost every hole, it required accurate tee shots and precise approaches. Early in the round the guys had to get used to the firmness of the greens and adapt quickly. Jerry Zhao did so and fought his way to a career low round in his mustang career with a one-over-par, 72! Carson Kidd was not far behind him with his round of 73. The rest of the scores were Nico Ryan 80, Alex Hay 81, and Jonah Lou 85. The team score of 306 was good enough for a second place finish, seven shots behind Clements High School and another great event for the team! Next up is the Wildcat Invite down at Moody Gardens! Win The Day!
Aggieland Match Play Champs!
Left to Right: Johnny Cooley, Walker Bergen, Will Overall, Jeffrey Zatorski, Preston Rouse, Coach Brady
The top five Mustangs traveled up to College Station this weekend to compete in the Aggieland Match Play hosted by the A&M Consolidated Tigers. The first day included 36 holes of continuous stroke play to determine seeding for day 2 and name the individual award winners. It was cold on Friday morning, but the mustangs got off to hot starts. Jeffrey Zatorski led the way with a 5-under par round of 67, but not far behind him was Preston Rouse’s 68. With Johnny Cooley, Will Overall, and Walker Bergen shooting 72, 73, and 77, it gave the mustangs a first round score of 280 (8 under par). The lowest team score recorded in over 4 years. The wind picked up for the second round, but the mustangs kept their heads up and attitudes positive. They managed their way to a round of 302 (Zatorski 70, Bergen 77, Rouse 77, Cooley 78, Overall 81), good enough to earn he number 1 seed for the match play portion. Jeffrey’s rounds of 67-70 earned him 1st place individually, winning by five shots. That is Jeffrey’s third individual win in four weeks! The championship match included the Memorial Mustangs and the Highland Park Fighting Scots. This head-to-head format gave the coaches the opportunity to send players out in their desired order. Senior Will Overall went out first against Thompson Huthnance and played 16 very solid holes at even par, however Huthnance played extremely well at 3 under par. Will fought back late winning two holes in a row on the back nine, but in the end Huthnance won the match 3&2. The next match, Sophomore Preston Rouse went up against a senior in Randall Fojtasek. Both players put on a clinic all day, making over 14 birdies between the two of them. Rouse was able to close out Fojtasek on the seventeenth hole, winning 2&1. In the same pairing Senior Johnny Cooley performed outstanding, playing 16 holes at 3-under par giving him the 4&2 victory over Hudson Weibel. Sophomore Walker Bergen was in the final paring, going up against senior Jack Watson. Walker played his game as he knows how to, hitting tons of fairways and managing his short game well. He was able to close out Watson 2&1 on his seventeenth hole. Jeffrey Zatorski was up against Christian Clark and Jeffrey performed even better than he did during the stroke play portion, making an incredible 7 birdies in 14 holes. He won his match over Clark 4&3 and with the 4 points to 1 advantage; the Mustangs took home the team win. This is huge team win for the Mustangs!
Battle on the Bayou
Standing left to right: Will Rexrode, Edward Li. Sitting left to right: Logan Smith, Powell Jordan, Hunter Lee
The Mustangs headed down to the Bayou Golf Course to compete in the Texas City Invitational this past Tuesday. With tons of rainfall the day prior the golf course was very soggy and made it difficult to navigate the ball around the course. It didn't seem to bother freshman Powell Jordan in posting a score that matched is career low. His round of even par 72 led his team and was good enough for first place individually. The team as a whole flourished coming down the stretch making 3 birdies as a team on the last 5 holes, posting the first place team score of 335. The rest of the team scores were Edward Li 85, Will Rexrode 87, Hunter Lee 91, and Logan Smith 99. Another big team win for the mustangs!!
Big Win on The Island
Standing Left to Right: Coach Brady, Spencer Gray, Jackie Nguyen, Walker Bergen, Jeff Zatorski, Preston Rouse, Meredith Simpson, Tyler Gardner, Coach Wager. Sitting Left to Right: Zoe Slaughter, Catherine Lee, Lydia Howard.
The top 5 boys and girls got a really unique opportunity to play on the same teams this past week to compete in the Clear Lake Four-ball Invitational at the historic Galveston Country Club.. It was a four-ball format taking the best score on each hole between the two teammates. Our parings were Jackie Nguyen & Walker Bergen, Zoe Slaughter & Spencer Gray, Catherine Lee & Jeffrey Zatorski, Meredith Simpson & Tyler Gardner, and Lydia Howard & Preston Rouse. The boys came out hot the first round, even with heavy fog all day. The team first round score of 278 (10 under par) was the low round of the day and put us in great position headed into the final day. As the boys did day one, the girls got off to an even hotter start in round 2 catapulting the team to an unreal round of 27 under par for the day. The team score of 539 (37 under par) was an incredible accomplishment and gave the Mustangs a large margin of victory. They swept the individual awards as well as the team win. Lee & Zatorski’s 68-65 earned them first place, Nguyen & Bergen’s 71-63 gave them second, and Slaughter & Gray’s 72-63 got them third. Howard & Rouse’s 70-70 and Simpson & Gardner’s 69-74 also earned top 10 finishes as well! Jackie Nguyen played outstanding on day 2 and her 8-under par round of 64 gave her the new course record at Galveston Country Club! Simply a phenomenal event for both the Girls and Boys teams as they approach post-season play!
Solid Showing in Montgomery
The mustangs stayed busy and traveled up to Bentwater Country Club in Montgomery, TX for the Don Massengale Memorial Tournament. The first round was a very chilly morning followed by strong winds coming off Lake Conroe. Devin Dinsmore led his team through the first round with a great round of 77. The first round team score of 326 was a very solid start for this group, especially on this golf course. The second round was warmer, but a lot more wind was present. Our team got off to a rocky start, but stayed patient and grinded out a 338 for the second round. The team total of 664 was good enough to finish right in the middle of the pack at 11th place. Individual scores were Devin Dinsmore 77-82, Drew Vandervoort 83-82, Jerry Zhao 83-83, Nico Ryan 83-92, and Jonah Lou 93-91. Up next for this group will be the Clemens Varsity and Wildcat Invitational.
Another Win in Cypress
Left to Right: Marshal Ramke, Christopher Robishaw, Jeffrey Zatorski, Walker Bergen, & Will Overall
The varsity boys traveled to the nearby Blackhorse Golf Club in Cypress and competed in the Nicole Corser Memorial Tournament hosted by Katy ISD schools. Day one was on the North Course and 25 mph winds proved an extremely tough test for everyone. After a rough start, the guys battled back and posted a score of 322, which was good enough for a 10 shot advantage. The second round was on the South Course, much narrower and with trickier greens. Jeffrey Zatorski’s fast start with two birdies in the first five holes enabled him to lead his team with a very impressive four-under par round of 68. Walker Bergen had a tough start on the South, but he managed his way around playing his last 13 holes one under par to shoot 75. The Mustangs strong second round was good enough for a big team win! Individual scores were Jeffrey Zatorski 77-68 (1st Place), Walker Bergen 80-75 (3rd Place), Will Overall 80-81, Marshal Ramke 85-81, and Christopher Robishaw 86-80.
Victorious in Crosby
Left to Right: Nico Ryan, Jerry Zhao, Hayden Smith, Devin Dinsmore, Erikson Pittman
Five Mustangs traveled up to Stonebridge Golf Club at Newport this past Friday and Saturday to compete in the Crosby Invitational. In extremely wet conditions this team was able to post two very solid team rounds for the event. In round one, senior Hayden Smith led his team firing a round of 76 and only four shots back of the individual lead. Right behind him were freshmen Erikson Pittman and Nico Ryan shooting rounds of 79 & 80. After day one their round of 318, gave them a sizable lead over Brazoswood and Friendswood. The team goal was to simply improve on the team score from round one, if accomplished it would surely secure the team title. Erikson and Nico showed extreme poise as they backed up their first round scores with round of 78. Good enough for them to finish in 2nd & 3rd indivifdually. Sophomores Devin Dinsmore and Jerry Zhao both improved on their first round scores as well. The second round score of 316 was good enough to get the win. A very impressive showing out of this group! Individual Scores: Erikson Pittman 79-78, Nico Ryan 80-78, Devin Dinsmore 83-79, Hayden Smith 76-90, & Jerry Zhao 92-81.
JV Boys Battle in The Woodlands

For sure some of the toughest conditions thus far this year, with wind gusts up to 20 mph and the temperature never getting above 53 degrees. They fought hard and were led by Michael O'Shell with his round of 88. The team score of 382 was good enough to finish right in the middle of the pack. Other scores were William Rother 94, Bo Neuhaus 95, and Paxton Ponce 105. Up next for the JV squad will be the Texas City Invite on February 25th.
Mustangs Finish 5th at Hill Country Shootout
The second varsity team had the opportunity to travel up to Burnet this past weekend to compete in the Hill Country Shootout hosted by Vandegrift High School at Delaware Springs Golf Course. The hill country wind showed its teeth on the second day of the event, which made the golf course, play even more difficult. A much different style of golf was required for the mustangs and they adapted well. Their first round score of 310 put them in 6th place out of 15 teams headed into the final round. Christopher Robishaw led his team the first day with a solid 76. With the wind gusting up to 25 mph, freshman Carson Kidd was able to manage his way around Delaware Springs to post a great round of 77.

The second team boys of Will Overall, Dylan Gardner, Marshal Ramke, Blake Jarvis and Devin Dinsmore placed 2nd in a very talented field out at Eagle Pointe Golf Club. The Fall Regional Preview was shortened to 18 holes after torrential downpours on Friday made the course unplayable. This event last season was cancelled all together for the same reason. However the second round went according to plan and the Mustangs fought through the wet conditions. Dylan Gardner lead his team with a round of 77 and Blake Jarvis right behind him with a 78. Other scores were Will Overall 79, Devin Dinsmore 79, and Marshal Ramke 82.

Tyler Gardner, Jeffrey Zatorski, Walker Bergen, Preston Rouse, and Will Brookby traveled up to Southlake, TX to play in the 2019 Dragon Fall Cup, hosted by Southlake Carroll High School at Timarron Country Club. Instead of the traditional team event, the teams played a Maxwell Format which involves all 5 teammates playing in the same group and each team takes the 4 best scores on each hole. The teams played 36 continuous holes on Monday and the golf course proved to be a difficult test for all teams. The team struggled heavily on par 4's as a whole, but played phenomenal on the par 3's (a combined 1 under par for the 2 rounds). Tyler Gardner lead his team with rounds of 78-71 and finished in a tie for 6th place individually. His 1 under par 71 in the afternoon round included 3 birdies and an eagle. The overall team score of 623 (308-315) was good enough for 6th place. The rest of the scores were Zatorski 75-78, Rouse 79-81, Bergen 76-85, and Brookby 82-85.

Lead by Sophomore Hunter Lee's round of 81 (good enough for 2nd place individually), the mustangs had yet another strong showing. In extremely chilly conditions the team fought through the adversity faced and played hard. Edward Li shot 85, Will Rexrode 87, Paxton Ponce 87, and Bo Neuhaus 89. The team score of 340 was good enough for 2nd place overall and only finished 6 shots back of Kingwood.

The second team boys went down to the always windy Moody Gardens Golf Course last week. A solid field, including a couple of state qualifiers from last year were among the competitors. The mustangs took 3 seniors and two sophomores and all fought hard from beginning to end. The first round on Friday proved to be difficult on the back nine with wind gusts up to 20 mph on some holes, but they held on and shot a solid round of 309. Headed into the second round on Saturday, the mustangs were sitting in 2nd place, 7 shots behind Clear Creek High School. The second round played even tougher than the first round, with wind gusting up to 25 mph. With strong attitudes and solid iron play in the wind, a team score of 311 was quite impressive.

Varsity Boys Win in Kingwood
From Left to Right: Spencer Gray, Preston Rouse, Tyler Gardner, Walker Bergen, Will Overall
The Varsity boys competed this past weekend up in the Atascocita Fall Championship hosted by Kingwood High School. Even in perfect weather the short, narrow golf course proved top be a very difficult set up for the field. Ant hill greens caused golf balls to wonder off on approach shots and deemed short game shots to be precise. After a first round score of 314, the Mustangs had the lead going into the final round on Saturday. The final round began on a much better note than the first, with 2 boys finding themselves under par thru their first 5 holes. As the wind picked up the golf course showed its teeth again, but the mustangs held strong. They posted a team score of 309 and won the tournament by a comfortable margin. Spencer Gray found himself in a playoff for the 2nd place after rounds of 78-76, but fell just short after 4 holes of play. Walker Bergen finished in 4th, shooting rounds of 79-77. Will Overall finished just ahead of his teammate Preston Rouse in 7th place. Will shot rounds of 80-79 and Preston 77-83. Tyler Gardner rounded out the scores and finished in a tie for 11th with rounds of 88-77. Next up for the varsity squad is the Tiger Classic this coming weekend in College Station.

The JV Boys traveled up to Montgomery to compete in the Bear Fall Golf Invitational at La Toretta Golf Club. The golf course played extremely difficult in some chilly weather, but the mustangs managed to get 3rd place with their 352 team total! The course set up proved a tough test and mental games proved strong for all 4 players. Freshman Erikson Pittman lead his team with a round of 81 and that was good enough to place 2nd individually.
