WILMINGTON — McClain edged Wilmington by three strokes Wednesday in a non-league girls golf match at the Elks 797 Golf Club.
“I was very proud of our team effort,” WHS head coach Chad Fields said. “We improved as a team by 14 strokes from our last match.”
Abi Earley and Kailey Pfister were the top Hurricane golfers, shooting 49s. Kaylin Sterling of McClain was the overall match medalist with a 47.
“I think all of our ladies learned a lot in this match,” Fields said. “With us losing by three strokes, they all know that every stroke matters. We are very young and learning very fast.”
Pfister’s 49 and Claire Conner’s 61 were both personal bests, Fields said. “It’s very encouraging to see them improve on their game,” the coach added.
