Payton Sierra ‘18, Taylor Campbell ‘16, Kianna Whirlwind Horse ‘19, and Jordan Yankton ‘19- the four reasons why the course is wild.
Meet the girls golf team.
These girls are coached by Alicia Adams, a counselor in the high school, and she is working with three-out-of-four first time golfers. More than half of the girls are still in middle school, and Campbell is only a sophomore. This team mirrors the boys golf team back in 2012 when inexperienced golfers tested the waters.
Payton Sierra is the only golfer who has one year of high school golf under her belt. However, she has been playing golf amongst other sports throughout her young life. Last year, Sierra made it to state along with former golfer Leannah Vitalis.
“She can go to state and even win state,” said Coach Adams. “She improves each time.”
In the past tournaments, Payton came in from the 18th hole posting these scores: 105 at Belle Fourche, 101 at Gordon, NE, and right now she is currently battling the golf course in Spearfish along with her teammates at the Pre-Region Tournament.
