Hamilton boys win championship
By the Missoulian missoulian.com
LAUREL – The Hamilton boys’ golf team secured its second State A title in four years Saturday, holding off host Laurel for a two-stroke victory at the Laurel Golf Club.
The Broncs totaled 640 behind the stellar play of Brad Palin (153) and Eli Rogers (156). Rounding out the list of contributors were Tyler Jessop at 160 and Kyle Lubke at 171.
Belgrade’s Zack Stowell shot an even-par 72 to claim medalist honors. He edged Reed Platke of Whitefish by one stroke.
Platke, the defending boys’ champion, missed a 15-foot putt on No. 18 that could have forced a playoff. That opened the door for Stowell.
“It slid by at the wrong time,” Platke told the Billings Gazette. “But (Stowell) came back and played well. He deserves it.”
Billings Central took the girls’ team title in dominant fashion. The Rams totaled 693, which was well in front of runner-up Laurel at 748 and Whitefish at 769.
After finishing in second place last year, Billings Central junior Kyla Clancy reached the top Saturday by firing a final-round 76, cruising to a nine-stroke victory.
Clancy came into the day tied with Whitefish’s Kiley McConnell atop the leaderboard. McConnell, however, shot a second-round 90 and faded from the pack.
