Montana’s so-called “spring” continued to take its toll on Jefferson High sports last week. But as conditions improved, the Panthers eased back into action—looking as strong as they had before snow and cold put their seasons on hold.
At the Cottonwood Hills golf course outside Bozeman, the Jefferson boys extended their winning streak; their 333 team score bested Manhattan Christian, with 341, Anaconda at 347, and six other schools. Preston Field tied for second with an 81, Colin Field tied for fourth at 82, Luke Eckmann and Marcus Lee were 10th with 85, and Ben Werner was 15th at 87.
The Lady Panthers took third, behind Manhattan Christian, at 370, and Three Forks at 392. Celi Chapman won individual honors by 12 shots, with a sparkling 75. Her teammate Jessie Harris tied for eighth at 98, Brynna Wolfe was 19th at 110, and Izzy Morris placed 23rd at 116.
