Gallatin Golfers Win Albany Quad

Crose, Copple Post Top Scores At The Event

It didn’t take long to realize Gallatin girls golf teammates Courtney Crose and Elle Copple were competing against each other for medalist honors at the Albany Quad. No one else on the rosters of Albany, Gallatin, Worth County and Rock Port were going to come close to what that duo was doing.
In the end, it was Crose who grabbed the medal with a score of 48, three strokes ahead of Copple’s total of 51. Copple’s mark was 10 strokes clear of the third-place score at the quad.
With those two marks, Gallatin cruised to the quad win with a team score of 228. Worth County had the only other team score — a 270 — as Albany fielded just three golfers and Rock Port had just two.
Cloey Waterbury had the Bulldogs’ third-lowest total, shooting a 61, and Kylie Stagner’s total of 68 rounded out the Gallatin team score. Brianna Filley was also in varsity action, shooting a 77.
Three junior varsity golfers were in action for Gallatin. Hannah Critten carded a 61, tying her with Waterbury for third-place individually at the meet. Madison Kirk shot a 65 for the JV and Kiley Poindexter added a 71.
“These young ladies continue to work hard and that is showing in the scores they are posting,” Gallatin coach Chris Wever said.
Molly Miller of Worth County had the top score outside of Gallatin’s roster, shooting a 63.
Gallatin hosted Trenton, Lawson and Hamilton in a home quad on Thursday and will host the Gallatin Girls Golf Tournament on Tuesday. Tee time at the Daviess County Country Club is set for 9 a.m.
