CHANUTE — Iola Middle School’s golf team finished its 2013 season Wednesday at the Chanute Invitational.
The Ponies earned only a single medal — Emily Luedke got 10th place in the girls division with her 67 — but that didn’t negate the team’s improvement over the season, head coach Stacey Crusinberry said.
“I was very happy with how they played,” she said. “They have made a lot of improvements, despite all the practices missed due to poor golfing weather.”
Drake Sell recorded the low round for Iola boys with a 57. Aaron Terhune and Luedke shot 67s. Noah Westervelt carded a 70 and Mea DeLaTorre a 72.
Royster Middle School’s Austin Liudahl of Chanute had the low score in the boys division, 40. Gracie Lopez, Pittsburg, shot a 51 to lead the girls.
Chanute’s 171 was good for the team title. Iola’s four-person total was 261.
