West Ottawa boys golf claims share of first-ever OK Red Conference title

The West Ottawa boys golf team claimed a share of the OK Red Conference championship for the first time.

The Panthers finished second at the conference tournament, and coupled with the regular-season results, earned a share of the conference title.

"The guys are very happy to not only win a share of the OK Red Conference championship, but also get to place a banner in the gym because this is the first ever boys golf conference championship in West Ottawa history," West Ottawa coach Tarry Cutter said.
