Golf Season officially came to an end today. Congratulations to Ayden for making it to State! He battled some of the worst conditions both days of the tournament, and still improved on his performance last season. In fact he shot the best score an Odessa Bulldog has turned in at the state championship! Though he didn’t finish where he wanted, this was a great accomplishment and I am very proud of how he was able to play.
Congratulations Ayden!
