Class B Golf 2007

[kitty]

Ya know, Hazen and Beulah, though they aren't going as a team, still have 4 individuals going a piece.  That would really bite if they end up doing really well at state as teams, but can't count it because they didn't actually make it to state as a team.   I can see this happening too. 

[kitty]

Boys individual will be Jacob Wheeling and team will be Oakes. Girls team will be Watford City but the individual is a toss up between Paige Anderson, Krista Lambrecht, Briana Langowski, and Molly Swanston.

I may be biased, but I don't think Wheeling will take the state title this year.  It's been his year for the regular season, but look back at the dominant player from Region 5 last year, and that's where I think you'll find a state champion. 

As for teams, I don't think there's any clear-cut standout in the field this year.  It's gonna be a close tournament.

You probably meant Oak Grove right.  Because Oakes didn't even qualify for state.

As I see it.....All the pressure is on the teams out West. The tourney is in their backyard.  The east has dominated Class B golf the last 4 years. Lets see if the West can handle the pressure of being the favorites

how you figure east has dominated.... and its not in the west backyard, half of the teams going from the west havent even played out at the Links

Were all 3 teams from Oak Grove? Must be nice to get a couple of the best golfers in the state to transfer in for a couple years.

[feeshattack]

Oak Groove is goin to the state meet this year to right??

[linksman]

Before you go too far down that road, keep in mind that since the inception of open enrollment, there have been way more "transfers" from public school district to public school district.   Private schools are of course easy targets for those who despise them, or are not willing to face the truth.

I dont know about Lockert, but Seil,  the freshman from Trinity Christian qualified individually as an eighth grader,  finished  70 something

Jacob Wheeling will not win the Class B Golf Title.  He has only one on 3 golf courses I believe, and they all could be classified as his home course.  Jacob Wheeling has been a solid golfer this year-deserves the honor of top senior this year, but majority of the tournaments have been in the west, where he golfs...take these three courses out of the mix, and he hasn't won.  My earlier prediction back many months ago had new salem  winning the region-and I was only 1 stroke off team total prediction(sure, I'll take a medal or cookie :)  )   I believe Garrett Schultz will beat Jacob Wheeling for the State Title....

[Weezy Baby]

not saying i agree or disagree, b/c they are both extremely good golfers, but being FROM new salem probably fades your outlook on the whole thing wouldn't you say?

Last time i checked, Red Mike was in the western part of the state, and im pretty sure he's golfed at Red Mike more than most who will be participating in the tourney. I think he has as good a shot as anybody just because of the distance he can get off the tee, if its windy out at Red Mike, which more than likely it will be, his chances of winning go up because he does hit it so long. Another thing i like about his chances is that he plays Killdeer's course, which has alot of similarities with Red Mike; the native grass, elevation change, and wind.

Ah snap, Shultz won.  He's been wanting that victory a long time, and he favors links courses as well. 

In other news, kitty played like crap (understatement).  :(

Congratulations to Shultz, he earned that one, the younger Dufault gave him a run for his money. The way i saw it all the pressure was on Shultz to hold off Dufault and he came through in the clutch, the weather was absolutely terrible too. In other news Tu-Big played about as good as kitty did.

[SJ_Woodchuck]

Well he could be but last year at state e went like 74 87 or something like that

yeah last year he was a sophmore now he is a junior and hes placing in state

[project-pat]

anybody got team results?

[gmac90]

Oak Grove won once again edging out Killdeer by a stroke, and I believe Larimore was third.  Oak Grove shot 650 (317-333) to Killdeer's 651 (330-321).

And how about the future of North Dakota Class B Golf?!?  Two 8th graders in a playoff for the State Championship, a freshman in the last group, another eight grader on the All-State team, and several other very talented younger kids who have already won high school tournaments.

Man, am I good at predicting things.  I predicted who would win the Region and who would win state, and that Jacob W would not win on a course that he hasn't played a dozen times.  Congratulations Garrett......

how did new salem do as a team? hahahaha i expected more from the region 5 champs. garret is amazing tho, i must say

It doesn't help when two of the four players they have that are capable of shooting 70's have the worst rounds of their year and shoot mid 90s. 

I realize that the New Salem team relies on Garrett heavily, but there's no need to crap on the team because of one person's comments on an internet forum.

good teams can shoot well when it really counts...and good teams also do not rely on one player to carry them.

Congrats to Oak Grove----I guess I underestimated them.  I understand this is their 3rd in a row and they have won 4 of the last 5 State Championships.  Very Impressive Indeed!!!!
