Patriots 7th of 17 Teams in Tough Blue Springs South Field

The Christ Prep Patriots delivered a solid 7th Place team finish today against some tough large class competition at the Blue Springs South "Jaguar Invitational" held at Lakewood Oaks Golf Club in Lee's Summit.

The Patriots' 359 mark was relatively good given the tight Lakewood layout which was made longer than its 6,300 yards by an abundance of casual water remaining from overnight rains. CPA's 359 was 25 strokes behind winner and host Blue Springs South. The Jaguars barely edged out Blue Springs which totaled a 325.

Following is the list of scores and places for all competing schools:

Place	School	Score
1	Blue Springs South	324

14	Summit Christian	408
15	O'Hara	419
16	Fort Osage	450
17	William Chrisman	495

Individually, the Patriots only had one player who received a top ten medal. Freshman Garrett Clark once again delivered CPA's low round of the day, a 12-over-par 83 which was good enough for an 8th Place tie.

Clark Shaffstall was close behind (Garrett) Clark with an 86. The Patriots's other round of under 100 came from senior Phoebe Finley who shot a 90. Finley was the only girl in the tournament and her 90 was in the top third of all scorers.

The Patriots will spend the remainder of the week practicing and will return to action next week as they travel to a couple of Kansas Invitationals. Monday, April 20, the squad heads to the Hayden Inv. in Topeka while Tuesday (4/21) they compete at the Osawatomie Inv. in Osawatomie
