Snow consistent, Patriots regress

The Patriots started to get on a roll, but two days later they regressed.

After shooting season-best scores on back-to-back days, Jay County High School’s girls golf team slipped up on Wednesday to allow South Adams to pull off a 209-216 victory.

Jay County’s scores from the previous two days both would have beat the Starfires’ score on Wednesday as the Patriots shot a 202 on Monday and a 197 on Tuesday.

Maddy Snow stayed consistent, managing a round of 47 to take home match medalist honors. She parred the 289-yard, par-4 10th hole and added four bogeys as well.

Megan Yoder finished one stroke behind Snow to provide the Starfires’ top score.

Bailey Towell’s round consisted of four bogeys en route to a 53 for the second-best Jay County (2-8, 1-4 ACAC) score.

For the first time in her career, Jaycee Rowles scored for the Patriots by putting up a career-best 56. She did particularly well on the par-3s, finishing with a bogey on both.

Brooklynn Bright contributed the final score of 60, while Erin Aker’s 65 didn’t impact Jay County.

LeFevre leads

HARROD, Ohio — Fort Recovery’s boys golf team finished second of four teams in a meet Tuesday at Colonial Golfers Club.

The Indians put together a team score of 177 strokes, falling short of Leipsic (165) by 12. Allen East and Arcadia trailed behind with 184 and 198, respectively.

Reece LeFevre provided the low score for Fort Recovery (8-6) with his round of 41. He trailed Allen East’s Levi Clum, who shot a 33, for match medalist honors.

Eli Lennartz and Caleb Smith also kept their scores below 50, as they added rounds of 42 and 44.

Both Keegan Muhlenkamp and Riley Grieshop shot 50s to round out the Indians’ team score.

Drew Backs shot a 52 that didn’t play into the final result.

MONROE — The Jay County Junior High School football team escaped Adams Central on Tuesday with a 14-13 win in the seventh grade game and a 14-6 win for the eighth graders.
