The ACGC boys golf team competed at a quad meet hosted by Madrid on Monday, April 6. ACGC shot a 199 as a team, which pleased Head Coach Lori McGivney. ACGC’s Sayer Bireline-Huss quickly returned to form from last season, placing fifth overall, shooting a 39.
“My goal was to be under 200 for the opener, and we did accomplish that. Adjusting to competition and green speed, as well as playing in very cold conditions, provided a lot of new challenges for the unseasoned players. They handled it well,” McGivney said.
