Nora Carlson set a new school record with an 18-hole 76 to lead the Humboldt girls’ golf team to a runner-up finish in the North Central Conference meet held on Monday, May 10 in Mason City.
Carlson’s 36-40—76 broke the school record 78 she shot two years ago in the state tournament. Humboldt finished with 387 strokes, 32 behind top-ranked and league champion Clear Lake, which had 355.
“When you compare today’s score from our last 18-hole meet, we shaved off 29 strokes. That’s pretty good,” Harklau said. “All of our girls played really well today.”
Carlson was backed by teammate Noelle Hamand, who was eighth overall with 49-51—100. Aries Packard shot 51-53—104, Chloe Mayall 54-53—107 and Ashlee Wergeland 51-58—109. Tori Gargano finished with 58-66—124. Carlson was battling Clear Lake standout Meghan DeLong, who finished second with a 77.
The Wildcats will prepare for the Class 3A Regional Tournament in Waverly on May 24. The meet will determine entries in the state tournament.
