HUDSON, Wis. — The Stillwater boys golf team opened its season with a fourth-place finish out of 20 teams in the Hudson Invitational on Monday, April 8 at Troy Burne Golf Club.
The Ponies posted a score of 215, but conference and section rival Cretin-Derham Hall cruised to the victory with a total of 291. Four Raiders finished among the top five and signed for a 75 or better, led by co-medalists Sam Udovich and Joe Honsa, who each shot a 71. The team’s first throw-away score was a 77.
Eau Claire Memorial finished second at 312 while Mahtomedi (315) and Stillwater followed in third and fourth, just ahead of Suburban East Conference foes East Ridge (320) and Woodbury (321).
“It was a good showing for the Ponies, who know that Cretin and Mahtomedi will be the prime competition at sections,” Stillwater coach John Scanlon said.
Zeke Roberts set the pace for the Ponies with a 78, which was good enough for 12th place overall, while Dane Berggren and Parker Trobec finished one shot back with 79s to tie for 16th place. Luke Myers and Ryan Stanek were next for the Ponies with matching 83s and Tyler Coleman finished with an 85.
