Six Hamilton County golfers participated in the 94th Women’s Western Junior tournament, which is taking place this week at Aurora Country Club in Aurora, Ill.
The tournament began on Tuesday and continued into Wednesday with 36 holes of stroke play in order to determine the top 16 that will advance to match play starting today. While none of the local players qualified for match play, there were some solid scores.
Christina Pfefferkorn, a senior-to-be at Guerin Catholic, was the highest county finisher, carding a two-day score of 78-80=158, four strokes off from the cut of 154. Pfefferkorn totaled two birdies, one in each round.
Westfield’s Samantha Brown, soon to be a Shamrocks sophomore, finished with a 79-81=160, including one second-round birdie. Michaela Headlee, a sophomore-to-be at Carmel, carded an 85-81=166. Another Greyhounds sophomore-to-be, Claire Swathwood, finished with an 80-89=169, making two second-round birdies.
Sophie McGinnis, who will be a senior at Westfield, scored an 89-80=169, making one birdie in the first round and two in the second round for three total birdies. Katie Kuc, a recent Carmel graduate headed for Xavier University, finished with an 89-91=190, including one birdie in the second round.
