Waukesha County golf championship set for Saturday

The high school boys golf teams from Waukesha County will be participating in the eighth annual Waukesha County Boys High School Championship, April 22-23, at Waukesha County's Nagawaukee Golf Course, Wanaki Golf Course and Moor Downs Golf Course.

The 36-hole varsity championship will begin Friday at Nagawaukee Golf Course in Pewaukee with a 1 p.m. shotgun start. Twenty teams will be participating in round one of the 36-hole Championship. On Saturday, 20 teams will compete in round two of the 36-hole championship that will be held at Wanaki Golf Course in Menomonee Falls. All schools will tee it up with an 8 a.m. shotgun start.

This will be the first year of a 36-hole County Championship for the varsity players, as this was an 18-hole event always held at Wanaki Golf Course.

This is also the largest all-county high school golf championship in the state.

Awards will be given in the 36-hole championship for the lowest three individual scores in rounds one and two and for the lowest 10 individual scores in the 36-hole championship. Team winners will be crowned each day, plus the overall 36-hole champion will be awarded.
