Talk about it

The Wildcat boys’ golf team won a pair of tournament championships last week and tied for first place in two Big Rivers Conference meets to continue its hot start to the season.

The Cats won the Tartan Invitational last Monday, April 16, and took first at the Chippewa Falls Invitational this past Saturday, April 21. In between, they tied Hudson for first place in the first two BRC meets of the season last Tuesday at Wild Ridge in Eau Claire and Thursday at Clifton Hollow.

The Wildcats will compete in the Wayzata, Minn. Invitational this Friday before another BRC meet Monday, April 30, in Hudson.
