In their first home match of the season, the Okaw Valley golf team welcomed Meridian and Sullivan to the National at Eagle Creek in Findlay Tuesday evening and under much cooler conditions than what the beginning of the season had in store.

Nicer weather aside, however, the Timberwolves finished with a combined 192, behind first place Meridian, who finished with a 179. Sullivan finished third with 205.

Devon Still was OV’s leader, shooting 44 after nine holes. He was followed by Jay Orris’ 45, Colton Sroka’s 46, Justin Johnson’s 57, and a 61 by both Logan Tipsword and Drew Fruchtl.

“We didn’t play as well tonight, but we still had a couple of very good rounds,” said OV head coach Andy Wagner. “ I was very pleased with the way our players carried themselves this evening and looking forward to seeing us continue to get better over the next couple of weeks.  We will have a good test for our players coming up with the Mt. Zion Invitational on Friday and the Windsor Invitational on Saturday.”     Login or Subscribe to read the rest of this story.
