Falcons Girls Golf Wins East, Takes TRC Meet

Their goal is again to make Becker, and the state Class A golf tournament.  Fillmore Central’s girls accomplished a couple feats on the way to that hopeful destination.  On back-to-back nights, they beat Lewiston-Altura twice (180 to 198 and 178 to 190).  Madison Scheevel (38*) and Grace Miller (39) led the way on the Monday.  Cailey Rindels (41*), Miller (42), and Scheevel (44) all shot under 45 on Tuesday.  The wins improved FC’s records to 9-1 (TRC), 11-1 (overall).  They clinched the out-right TRC East division title over Caledonia (which has losses to FC and L-A).  It’s the Falcons fifth straight shared or out-right title.  A couple nights later, FC conquered the TRC Meet, beating nearest foe Caledonia 368 to 385.  After three straight top seven finishes including second place the past two years, the senior Miller (78) finally got to be TRC meet champion.  She bested La Crescent’s Anna Tollefson (84) for the title.  Grace shot a second-nine 36, the only golfer to post an under-40 tally.  Aaron Mensink’s Falcons put five in the top 12; as Scheevel (92, 4th place), Hailey Lange (98, 7th place), Taylor Bushman (100, 9th place), and Keanna Weedman (100, 10th-tie) joined Miller.  It was FC’s fifth straight TRC Meet title.
