The Spartans’ lone regional competitor, Taylor Hug, placed 11th overall on Wednesday in a 60-person Class 1A field at Shewami Country Club, in Sheldon.
She was a near-miss for advancement for the sectional.
The top four individuals not on an advancing team moved on to sectional. Among those players, Hug was sixth, finishing five shots behind the final qualifier.
Among all sophomores who competed at the Watseka Sectional, Hug finished fourth.
“She did great,” SJ-O coach Jeff Kern said. “She was right there.”
Hug shot a 102, a personal-best score this season.
