Hosting Hermann’s Bearcats on Thursday, April 9 at Owensville Golf Course (OGC), Cullen VanLeer’s Dutchmen looked to score a conference point during a Four Rivers Conference (FRC) dual against Hermann on their home course.

Firing a team score of 174, Owensville defeated Hermann who had a team score of 197.

Leading the Dutchmen against Hermann was Koen Brooks who carded a nine-hole round of 40 followed closely by Keigan Glaser with a 43 and Jack Tesson with a 44.

Rounding out the contingency of varsity Dutchmen golfers were Grant Huebler (47) and Brenner Thompson (49).

Hermann’s EJ Lindahl shot the top score of the meet with a one-over par round of 33.

Colton Echols also carded a nine-hole round of 46 while Austin Huntsman shot a 52.

Only the top four scores are figured when it comes to team scoring in a high school golf match.

During last Wednesday’s St. James Tiger Classic at St. James Golf Club, Brooks finished in the top 10 good for a medal after his seventh-place round of 88 over 18 holes.
