Eagles open season with Stone Creek win
Josh Hamre and Jacob Meehan were the first two Arlington golfers to tee off the season Thursday at Stone Creek Golf Course.
“Beautiful,” Hamre said after Meehan's second shot on the second hole. “Good shot.”
The pair led AHS to a dual victory against Omaha Concordia, coach Landon Walkenhorst confirmed. Hamre finished with 42 strokes across nine holes with a seventh-hole eagle, while Meehan finished with 44 swings. Tyler Anthofer added a 46, while Hunter Wallace carded 55 strokes.
The Eagles' Ben Stork and Johnathan Taylor finished with 61 and 72 swings, too, respectively.
“Overall great day to get out on the course and play,” Walkenhorst said. “The boys played well, but lots of room for improvement.”
AHS next competes 9 a.m. Wednesday at The Pines in Valley.
