The Mexico girls golf program made a big jump this season.
That isn’t just referring to the girls’ skill in driving the ball, but that there are more girls driving the ball. The Lady Bulldogs went from three girls last year to nine this year.
“I expect all the girls to improve their scores this year,” head coach Layne Meyers said. “I also expect them to go out and give it their all, but ultimately have fun with it. Golf is a lifelong sport that many do not pick up till later in life. It's good to have this skill as a young adult. You can only go so far in other sports.”
Mexico has seniors Alexis Henderson, Reagan Craig and Jordaii Cooks; junior Ella Connell; sophomore Brenda Matuz; and four freshmen Bentley McCarty, Reagan Hays, Khloe Bohl and Cassandra Young.
Craig’s potential has stuck out to Meyers and could take her as far as the state tournament. The six newcomers have all stood out to Meyers as well.
“The girls can really drive the ball,” Meyers said. “They've got the strength and distance down. They have been hitting some bombs. I am most excited about this because a drive can really make or break a hole during match play.”
