BIGFORK — Bigfork senior golfer Joseph Potkonjak signed to play collegiate golf at Carroll College on Tuesday.

Potkonjak, a 1.4 handicap, finished tied for second at the Class B state tournament last season, helping the Vikings to a third-place team finish. Playing for Flathead his first two seasons, he finished second as a sophomore and third as a freshman on the Braves’ team at the Class AA state tournament.

He won the 16-year-old age group at the state junior championship later in the season, earning one of six spots on the Montana-Alberta Junior Ryder Cup team that defeated Canada in Lethbridge last summer.

He has also won his age group in the Whitefish Junior Championship and the Flathead Valley Junior Golf Championship.

Carroll recently finished fifth as a team at the Frontier Conference championships in Tempe, Arizona. Potkonjak will join Greg Jones (Glacier) as Flathead Valley players on the Saints.
