The Milaca girls golf team hosted a 6-6-6 invitational Wednesday against 15 area teams at Stones Throw Golf Course in Milaca.

 

Becker (180) finished sixth while Big Lake (181) captured seventh.

 

Rachel Vogl and Hannah Garcia were Becker’s top scorers with an 82.

 

The host Wolves finished eighth with a team score of 183. St. Francis was first (153), followed by Rogers (165) and Cambridge (169). 

 

Other schools competing were Cathedral (fourth - 170), Foley (fifth - 177), Melrose (ninth - 200), Albany (10th - 201), Pine City (11th - 213), Pierz (12th - 217), Mora (13th - 245) and Rush City (N/A).

 

In the 6-6-6 format, the girls played in pairs as opposed to individually. Holes 1-6 were played as a scramble, where the best of two shots is selected and both players play from that spot.

 

Holes 7-12 were played in a best-ball format, where both girls played and the best score among the two was kept for scoring purposes. Holes 13-18 were played in an alternate shot format where both girls teed off and then alternated back and forth between the pair’s best ball.

 

Milaca had three duos playing in the tournament. The team of Claire Mettling and Haley Hoskins was the Wolves’ top team, scoring a 90, which was good for 13th place. Sisters Molly and Ellie Banks were three strokes behind with a 93. The team of Alicia Wolbert and Megan Gould came in with a 99.

 

Kalley Wagner and Rileigh Vojta of St. Francis finished first with a 74. Jade Newman and MollyAnn Havey of Cambridge were second with a 75.

 

Ann Berdan and Lauren Herker combined to shoot an 80 for St. Cloud Cathedral.
