RedTail Women’s Golf Takes Second

RedTail golf hosted its annual Hawkeye Shootout on Friday, October 6, at Fox Ridge Golf Course in Dike. 

The RedTails played great in cold conditions and ended with second place out of four teams, shooting an overall team score of 370. Chase Doland led the RedTails, shooting 87 and tying for third place individually. Olivia Hammel was just four strokes behind Doland shooting 91 and tying for ninth. Libby Larkin shot 94 and placed 12th, Bailey Nuss shot 98 and tied for 14th, and Lauren Funk shot 101 and tied for 19th. Lakota Moses shot 91 and tied for ninth and Calli Thome shot a score of 109 and took 23rd place. 

Head coach Micah Destival had some positive words after the invite.

"Probably not the weather we'd have liked to finish off the fall season, but we played pretty well and the women had nice stretches of holes where we can build on for the spring," he said. "This group has been fun to watch this fall and looking forward to working hard in the offseason to see how much better we can be in the spring.  There's a lot of potential for growth with this group."

The RedTails Fall season has come to an end and they will be ready to go in the spring.
