The Maroons battled through the nasty weather to reaffirm their supremacy on the fairways by sweeping the Great Northern Conference titles. Mark Siem, David Hofer and Lindsey Unger led the way for the Maroons as they added another jewel to their unbeaten seasons. They've all got a lot of experience in tournaments of this type. That is key.
More inexperienced players tend to lose their focus if they have a bad shot.
The girls got one of their strongest tests of the year at the Riverside Country Club course, but still emerged with a 411 to 423 win over an improving Marquette team. Siem and Hofer both carded a 75 at North Shore to claim low honors in the boys' meet. Siem then won the second playoff hole with a par to earn medalist honors. Steve Hofer's round of 85 was not counted in the Menominee total. With the league title hanging in the balance, the Maroons turned the back nine at North Shore into a nine-hole victory charge.
