Exhibiting sportsmanship, showcasing their polished swings and flashing their million-dollar smiles, members of the Dolores High School girls golf team left a lasting impression at the Class 3A Region 4 Golf Tournament in Gunnison on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

In addition, the team placed third overall in the 10-team tournament behind Colorado Academy and Vail Mountain High School and qualified three golfers for the Class 3A State Tournament for the first time in school history.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m so proud of these girls; they are really making history in our area,\u201d Dolores head coach Monica Plewe wrote in a text message to The Journal. \u201cWe have had one or two (state) qualifiers every year, but this will be the first time in our program\u2019s seven-year history that (we qualify three).\u201d<\/p>\n

Among the members of the team who qualified for the state tournament was junior Dimery Plewe, who did not have her best day but still managed to post a score of 89 and place sixth overall in the tournament.<\/p>\n

Also qualifying for state was junior Kiara Lingenfelter, who was solid throughout a round that saw her card a 94. Junior Kalli Partington rounded out the Dolores qualifiers by posting a single-round score of 109.<\/p>\n

While the Lady Bears\u2019 fourth team member, Kailey Case, narrowly missed out on state qualification after shooting a 114, the junior will travel to the state tournament as an alternate and will be allowed to compete in the event if other competitors withdraw.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe majority of the field came in with abnormally high scores, mostly because they played a tricky course with multiple forced carries,\u201d Monica Plewe wrote. \u201cSo many holes on the course just got out from under snow two and a half weeks ago.\u201d<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s Class 3A State Tournament will take place at Eagle Ranch Golf Club in Eagle May 20-21. The tournament will take place over two rounds and will feature Class 3A competitors from around the state.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
