Spoofhounds runner-up at MEC Tourney
CAMERON, Mo. — The Maryville boys golf team finished second Monday morning at the Midland Empire Conference Tournament at Cameron Veterans Golf Course.
Bishop LeBlond claimed its third-straight MEC title, shooting a 334, while the Spoofhounds finished with a team 348. Savannah finished third with a 352.
“Conditions were pretty tough with the cooler temperatures and high winds,” Maryville head coach Brenda Ricks said. “With all of the rain, the grounds crew had not been able to maintain the course so the rough was tall and thick. We spent a lot of time looking for golf balls. I’m very proud of how they boys played in these conditions.”
Three Spoofhounds also earned All-Conference honors by placing in the top 10. Smithville’s Jack Majeske earned medalist honors with a 77 while LeBlond’s Jack McKay, Savannah’s Trent Young and Maryville junior Hunter Hayes all shot 80s, and Hayes finished fourth.
Sophomore Matt Twaddle finished seventh with an 18-hole 84 and sophomore Bryce Farlin finished 10th with an 87 to also earn All-Conference honors.
Sophomores Jansen Bundridge and Trey Oglesby, finished 27th and 28th, respectively, to round out the Hounds’ scorers.
The Spoofhounds (4-1) will host the Maryville Tournament at 8:30 a.m. Wednesday at the Sechrest 18 at Mozingo Lake Recreational Park.
