Two weeks ago Wallowa
golf coach Marvin Gibbs said
he would feel a lot better if his
boys team’s score was around
380. At the Buffalo Peak Golf
Course in Union last week,
coach Gibbs got his wish
when his Cougar boys came

ing a 378. Wallowa sopho-
more girl meanwhile Claire
Wellens struggled a little.
For the boys, senior Karl
Wellens carded an 85 on
the demanding course. Alex
Coutant was next at 87. Kai
Oliver was the biggest mov-
er for the team, knocking 11
strokes off of last week’s tally
to reach 88. Thomas Jamer-
son also improved markedly
at 118. Alternate for the team,
Bryce Melville, slipped a little
from the previous week, card-
ing a 136 on the day.
