Darien Girls Golf Beats New Canaan 190-254

This Monday, April 21st, the Darien Girls Golf team took on the New Canaan Girls Golf team at home at Wee Burn Country Club, as did the JV girls. This was the team’s second match of the season after beating Fairfield Ludlowe the week before break.

Senior captain Margot Sweeney came in as the lowest overall score with a 43, including a chip in for birdie from the sand. Junior Amanda Sload followed with a 45, and junior captain Julianna Lee was close behind with a 48. The fourth score that counted was that of junior Megan Whittier, who shot 54. This combined for a 190, which bested New Canaan’s 254.

“Our team did a really good job yesterday, considering that we had yet to play Wee Burn this season, but going off of our win against Ludlowe we kept our momentum going and as a team played really well against New Canaan, shooting our lowest differential and one that will count towards States qualification,” Sweeney said.

The girls will take on Wilton at Woodway Country Club on April 24th, hoping to extend their undefeated record.
