Evan Harville chips out of the sand and onto the green at Wine Valley.
WALLA WALLA-Four area players from the golf team were invited Wednesday April 24th to the Wine Valley Invitational. Ashton Phinney and McKellyn Bradham represented DW while Evan Harvill and Will Neylon represented Columbia Burbank.
"Ashton played well but ended up taking too many putts. McKellyn blew up on the front nine but finally relaxed and played probably his best nine holes on the back. Will found some trouble in the sand on the first two holes which hurt his score on an otherwise solid round. Evan obviously played well; his only stumble came on the 17th hole with a bogey left him tied for first. Evan parred the 18th while Bennett Gray from Colfax birdied to take first place with 74," said DW Coach Mike McGhan.

Ashton Phinney Finishes 1st at Pomeroy
POMEROY-On Saturday April 27th in what would be a match shortened to nine holes instead of the planned eighteen, DW's Ashton Phinney posted the best score by two.
"The kids battled rain and wind for the entire round. We were scheduled to play 18 holes but the coaches decided to pull the kids off the course after 14 when we got hail with 25 mph winds. The scores were inflated due to shots being blown all over the place. Credit goes to the golfers for sticking it out as long as they did," said DW Coach Mike McGhan
