GHV’s Frayne places third

Clear Lake’s Emily Snelling repeated as State Champion and the Lions placed second in the Class 3A Iowa High School Girls State Golf Championship played at the Goldwater Golf Links in Ames.

Snelling, a junior who won the title last year in a play-off, the led the field from start to finish.  Her two day total of a two-under par ( 73-67) 140 is the third lowest in school history.

The Garner-Hayfield-Ventura girls soccer team made school history last week with their first ever Regional win.  Unfortunately, the season ended in the second game for the Cardinals.

GHV 1, Clear Lake 0

GHV faced Clear Lake on Tuesday, May 31, to open Regional play.  The Cardinals’ Payton Bamrick connected on a goal deep in the first half.  That was all it took, as one goal was enough to top the Lions.

The Clear Lake girls split games played with North Central Conference opponents last week and stepped outside the league for a hard-fought match with eighth ranked (2A) Central Springs.  The Lions are 2-3 overall and 2-1 in conference play.
