Sports Roundup: Hinds continues to pace golf team

Remaining undefeated on the season, Boulder City High School girls golf won their league match at Coyote Springs on Sept. 15.

“The team has been performing impressively this season,” head coach Robert Reese said. “With one league match remaining, the focus is on finishing strong before shifting attention to regionals. While the results have been encouraging, there are still opportunities for improvement. The hope is that the players remain driven, avoid complacency and continue working hard to capitalize on every stroke.”

Off to a 4-0 start, the Eagles cruised to a team score of 364, besting Coral Academy (420) and The Meadows (421).

Primed for another postseason run, Emmerson Hinds led all golfers with a score of 79, while Riley Elder finished second with a score of 87.

“Emmerson has had a great start to the season,” Reese said. “It’s always fun to watch her play and to see her work ethic. Even though I’ve been really impressed, I think she’d tell you she’s a little disappointed. She holds herself to such a high standard that sometimes it causes her frustration, even though she’s won every match she’s played. That’s just who she is and it’s one of the reasons I love having her on the team.”

Tied for fourth on the day to round out the Eagles’ core was Morgen Terrill and Martorano, who each finished with a score of 99.

Looking to remain undefeated, the Eagles will travel to Casa Blanca on Sept. 30 for their next match.
