THREE RIVERS — The Sturgis golf team competed in the Wolverine Conference Championships on Wednesday.
Hosting the event was Pine View Golf Club in Three Rivers. The Trojans shot a team score of 379 on the day to finish in fourth place. Because of the tiebreaker for the season, Sturgis finished second overall in the standings behind Otsego.
It wasn’t all bad news, however. Sturgis finished with three players earning First Team All-Conference honors. Senior Maddy Webb, junior Piper Sterling and senior Mia Martinez each earned their way onto the First Team list.
Webb also finished her second consecutive year as the scoring champion for the conference. She was named as the Outstanding Golfer for the conference on Wednesday.
