Divine Savior Holy Angels is leading the Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association girls state golf championships after Day 1, putting them in prime position for the title. The first of two crucial rounds wrapped up yesterday, October 12, at University Ridge in Madison, and now it’s all down to what happens tomorrow.
DSHA Carries Momentum Into Day 2
This isn’t the first time Divine Savior Holy Angels has stepped up big recently. Just last month, on September 23, they absolutely dominated the Greater Metro Conference Girls Golf Championship, taking home the title with a team score of 313. Zoe Gryniewicz and Addison Roesch were both out there competing for DSHA in that championship. You know that kind of winning experience has to give them a massive edge heading into the final day of the state championships. They’ve shown they can close it out under pressure, and now they’re just 18 holes away from another massive win.
The Field Still Has Time to Make a Move
While DSHA has the lead after 18 of 36 holes, this tournament is far from over. Plenty of Milwaukee-area teams are still in the mix, including Arrowhead, Hartford Union, Homestead, Waukesha South/North/West, and Lake Country Lutheran, alongside a bunch of other individual qualifiers from across the state. In that Greater Metro Conference championship back in September, Brookfield Central finished second with a 323 team score, and Brookfield East placed third with a 334. Individuals like Sophia Scherer from Brookfield Central and Remy Lichtig from Germantown, who finished fourth overall with a 76 in that previous championship, know how to compete. Talulah Pearson and Elizabeth Zuniga-Meyer from Brookfield East, and Hailey Burchett from Menomonee Falls, also competed there. Everyone’s got one more day to make a push, so DSHA can’t afford to take their foot off the gas.
Day 2 of the WIAA state golf championships kicks off with morning tee times on October 13. The state team and individual champions will be crowned by the end of it. Every shot is going to matter, and you know DSHA is coming in hot, ready to finish what they started!
