Winding down the season taking fourth in state.

Abby Bordewick • October 7, 2015

To wrap up the boy’s golf season, four of the players went to the Fort Collins Country Club and ended up taking fourth place over all. There were 13 teams in attendance from all over Colorado and four players from each team. They played two days, October 5^th and 6^th, playing 18 holes each day making that a total of 32 holes.

The players from Fossil Ridge who competed in state were Noah Brownell a senior, Matt Atkins, also a senior, Josh Caridi, a sophomore, and Dillion Stewart a freshman. The first day Brownell shot a 75, Atkins 77, Caridi 72, and Dillon ending the day with a 74. With the results, the SaberCats were two strokes behind Lakewood and Regis Jesuit standing at third place on day one.

Caridi states “I felt great about the season, it was awesome! I would say the highlight of my season would be shooting a 66 at Highland Meadows. Also taking 5^th at state shooting 72 on the first day and 72 on the second day.”

On the second day Brownell shot a 76, Atkins shot an 82, Caridi with a 72, and Stewart finishing with a 76. Before state Mr. Stevens, the golf coach said “I think we do have an outside chance of winning, with top 5 being a very realistic goal!” With that said the boys achieved the goal of placing in one of the top five spots.

About the Contributor

Abby Bordewick, Sports Writer

Senior, Abby Bordewick, is a fourth year journalist. Her favorite thing about being a part of Etched in Stone is getting to hear someone’s story from their perspective, and she especially enjoys writing biographies of students. “I like to know that I’m informing people and I just love writing in general,” she says.

Besides journalism, Abby has been on the golf team since freshman year and is involved in photography at Fossil Ridge. She’s lived in Colorado her whole life with her parents, a sister who’s a sophomore, a brother who’s in sixth grade, and two dogs. Abby is an outgoing and funny person who loves to getting to know her peers. After high school, Abby would like to continue her journalism education at CU Boulder or University of Nebraska with a degree in Journalism, English, or Business. Her dream job would be to write for a magazine or newspaper where she’d have the opportunity to go out and talk to people; a job, she feels, where her social skills would fit well.

She is a girl of many traits but gives 110% in when she finds something she loves. “If something is important to me, I won’t let it be subpar,” says Abby. Her journalism for the sports beat reflects this through both her passion and dedication to the paper.
