I have deep North Idaho roots and graduated from Eastern Washington University with an English degree with a creative writing emphasis with a minor in film. I worked at at the Bonner County Daily Bee before coming to work at the Bonners Ferry Herald in August 2021. I enjoy writing for the paper that my great-grandfather read and covering the same small town community that is still alive today. I cover all things Badger sports, local politics and government, community news, business, outdoors and appear on the 7Bee podcast for the Herald's update. When I'm not working I can be found reading a good book and sipping tea, knitting or attempting to sign opera. | March 23, 2023 1:00 AM
CLARKSTON — Badger golf traveled south to Clarkston for an informal tournament, with Braylyn Bayer taking the lowest score.
Since the tournament was informal, there was no team scoring or postings.
“It was just a day to get out and play golf for the first time this year for the vast majority of the players,” Bonners Ferry High School golf coach Ralph Lotspeich said.
Badger girls golf returns strong with returning golfers with state players and members of the 2023 3A state championship runner-ups.
Boys golf also returns with strong numbers and golfers returning from last season, Lotspeich said.
BF girls scores: Braylyn Bayer 85, Avery Bayer 95, Mia Blackmore 113, Holly Alexander 135
Boys: Eli Blackmore 96, Evan Reitz 97, Tyson Tadlock 109, Chago Jimenez 121, Jacob Bliss 129
