Gutsy athletes! All Jaguar boys' and girls' golf team members advance to Section 5A

The Jaguars athletes and coaches gather outside the Minnewaska Golf Course club house, with rain still coming down, after they all punched tickets to next week's Section 5A meet in Benson.

For the second year in a row, all Jaguars boys' and girls' golf team members advanced from the Sub-Section 5A-North meet to sections. They both advanced to sections in 2008 as well.

What a day! It was extremely windy, cold and very wet. I was lucky enough to use a golf cart to hop around the course and snap pictures. The kids battled the elements and managed to shine when it really counted. The B-B-E community should be incredibly proud.

This is the first year ever that the Jaguars girls' golf team has won the sub-section championship. 

On the boys' side, Clinton-Graceville-Beardsley won the team title. They won a tie-breaker over the Jaguars, who ended up tied on the team score for first place when the results were all added up.
