Little Hawks golfers not happy

By Olivia Hamilton and Daniela Perret

On Monday,  the varsity boys’  golf team placed fourth behind Iowa City West in Round 1 of the MVC Divisional Meet.

The team had a total score of 334, just six strokes behind the Trojans.

“I felt like today didn’t go very well,” junior Zach MacMillan said. “We didn’t have our game face on, we didn’t come in with a strong positive attitude that we should have.”

The Little Hawks are back in action Monday at the Pleasant Valley Golf Course in Iowa City.
