Caston Jr-Sr High School

Comet golfers scored a top five finish with a 386 in the HNAC tournament Saturday at Round Barn. Pioneer Junior, Micah Rans, was medalist with an 81 and propelled the Panthers to a first place finish with a 352 followed by Winamac with a 365. Freshman, Owen Chapman, fired a 90 for the Comets and made the All-Conference team. Max Sommers, who was an honorable mention, shot a 92, Luke Graham 99, Jace Rentschler 105, and Gage Thomas came in with a 107. Coach Rentschler commented after the meet, “I’m very proud of Owen Chapman. This is a guy, who in his first year, has really played well and his scores have kept us in the competitions. We feel very good about our team going into our last couple weeks of the season. We have not peaked yet. I would say, at a bare minimum, we are 20 strokes better than what we are playing so we are going to get after it the next couple weeks and moving into the post season, focus on getting some of our team, if not all of them, out of sectional. We can score low at Dykeman, so I really like our chances to advance. Our future is very bright for Caston golf.” Comets will head to Wabash Saturday for an invitational.
