Tigers fall to T-Birds at Tumwater Valley

Sep. 18—The Centralia golf team played well on Wednesday at Tumwater Valley, but the Tigers fell to Tumwater 192-256.

Tumwater coach Hal Gronseth commended Tumwater's score, saying it's one of the best he's seen in his decade coaching in this league, but he also said he was proud with how the Tigers performed.

"We finally shot where we think our players should be scoring," Gronseth said. "So although we caught them on a good day, we were happy with the way our golfers played today."

Tyler Fagerness led the Tigers with a 41, while Tristin Henning shot a 48. Jake Johnson was one back with a 49, while Jonas Howard logged a 53 and Kynon Meek shot a 64.

Tumwater was led by Braeden Konrad, who shot a 38, while Baylor Olson and Zane Laposky each logged a 39. Liam Gustaffson and Landon Baydo also impressed, shooting in the low-40s.

Both teams will head to Alderbrook Golf Course in Union on Saturday to take part in a tournament with Aberdeen, W.F. West, and four other schools.
