Section Golf Meet

This is the Fergus Falls Otter Golf Team. They have worked very hard this year claiming the Central Lakes Conference Title. They have been known to spend up to 3 days a week missing classes and attending golf meets, returning home at 11:00PM doing their school work until wee hours in the morning and back in class the next day. There was no sleeping in on Saturday mornings because they were either at a golf meet or practicing. On Monday they started a two day section meet at Greystone Golf Course in Sauk Centre. Only 6 teams qualified to return on Tuesday and they were one of them. They were just 12 points out of first place. Tuesday however was a little difficult for these guys on the course. They came in 4th behind Moorhead, Alexandria and Rogers. Congratulations guys! You make us proud.
How about these Salmon color shirts! Trevor Gervais the only senior on the team got to pick out the shirts this year and this was his choice. It made it easy to spot an Otter golfer.
I didn't know golf was even a spectator sport until a few years ago. One of life's fun moments is just walking along a golf course, watching your son play golf while enjoying the sunshine and nature.
