High school golf: Syracuse wins 5A golf title
53 comments | Read story
The one thing I do think needs to be changed is this, why should anyone be golfing on their home course for the state championship? Why not go to a 4-A home venue. Yes, local players might have played there, but it isn't the school's home course.
Teams - 2001 1st(Davis)2nd(Fremont)3rd(Northridge) 2002-1st(Davis)2nd(Fremont)2003..? 2004-1st(Bingham)2nd(Weber) 2005-1st tie(Fremont)/(Weber) 2006-

and whoever said purser was one of the top in utah this high school season you would think he would show it in region right? he placed outside the top 5 overall. the top 5 went 1- brandon kida/patrick fishburn 3- cole ogden 4- ryan sarlo 5- cody wass 6- devon purser. one tournament doesnt mean everything patrick only finished 1 stroke of kida they are the best in state. too bad fremont couldnt play well at state, they played consistent all year and beat syracuse by alot in region
After reading the TOP JUNIORS comment, i went and checked out the UJGA website....here is what i found for 2009 junior rankings in the state of Utah.
1-Fishburn
2-Purser
3-Kida
4-Parkinson
5-Ogden
6-Dearden
7-Fotu
8-Haws
9-Norseth
10-Jackson
20- Cody Wass
25- Ryan Sarlo
Now it makes sense why Cody Wass and Ryan Sarlo scored the way they did.
We all know that Syracuse, Fremont, Lone Peak, Dixie etc. all would have lost to the OHS TIGERS at EL MONTE or MT. OGDEN especially if MATT GODFREY was OHS coach.
After two days of a seesaw battle for the Challenge Cup crown, the outcome came down to the last two matches at Sand Hollow Golf Course in Hurricane.
The Zions Bank Challenge Cup features a team of the best junior golfers from the north part of the state playing against the best juniors from the south part of Utah. matches in which teams played an alternate shot. .
The final two matches cemented the win, with the north posting 210.5 points while the south had 195.5.
Lets put this one to bed and encourage ALL Utah Jr golfers to compete at the highest level with great integrity and not take it as serious as some parents who are trying to live through their kids.
