Junior Tanecia Stanczak and Freshmen Austin Rosenbaum both medalled at Lake Chelan Golf Course last Thursday in the opening match of the season for the Raiders.

The Raider boys’ team competed against Manson, Waterville, and Entiat, while Stanczak competed against the other girls as an individual as there were not enough girls to form a squad for any of the schools present.

Stanczak shot a 53 on the nine-hole course to take home the gold medal. Head Coach Steve Files was pleased with her performance,

"Tanecia’s game is looking very strong early in the season,” Head Coach Steve Files said. “She looks confident and has demonstrated excellent poise so far."

Rosenbaum shot a 54 in three-way tie for first with Austin Cochran of Manson and Matt Hodge of Entiat.

Files was pleasantly surprised with Rosenbaum’s performance in his first high school match.

"Austin used a steady short game to share the top spot," Files said.

With the strong start, the Raiders look forward to the next competion at Waterville today starting at 2 p.m. The Raiders will be joined by Waterville, Okanogan, Columbia Basin Secondary, and Moses Lake Christian Academy.
