The Walt Whitman golf team posted a 145 at Northwest Golf Course on Thursday, Oct. 1, beating three opponents and improving to 13-2 on the season.
The Vikings finished seven strokes ahead of the Damascus Hornets, 13 ahead of the Walter Johnson Wildcats and 21 ahead of the Blair Blazers, according to results reported by The Black and White, Whitman's student newspaper.
Junior Alex Bruch led the team with a 35, the lowest individual score in the match. Junior Leo Zelaya followed with a 36. Sophomore Miles Simpson, senior Andie Greenberg and junior Noah Caruso each carded 37.
All five scoring Vikings finished within two strokes of each other.
