Another dominating performance by the Varsity. The four man total today was 309. Although four shots higher than Monday, Trysting Tree is much harder than Oak Knoll. More important than the win today was the round turned in by Chase O'Sullivan. Chase had been in a mini-slump but snapped out of it today and led the team with a season low tournament score of even par 72. Chase was backed up by Casey O'Sullivan with a 75, James Tuttle with a 79 and Jacob Bailey with an 83. Chris Antley playing in his first Varsity match of the year had a solid 87.

Congratulations - baseball

Yesterday (4-12) our varsity baseball team pulled out a huge win against Sprague. After falling behind 6-3 in the top of the sixth inning, our guys battled back by scoring one in the bottom of the sixth and four in the final inning to beat a tough Sprague team. Sophomore Evan Fowler pitched brilliantly for four innings and Colby Rice came through with a clutch double in the final inning. Aaron Sigmund ended the game with a RBI single. Yesterday's game was a total team effort and a credit to how hard our team has worked this season.

Be sure to congratulate any baseball kids you see around school today.
