Yesterday our Boys Golf Team competed in the Lake County Cup at Harbor Hills. Annually since 1998, this tournament pits all 11 schools in our county against each other to see who is comes out on top.

Our team fired a 307 to win in a landslide over the following schools:
Mount Dora, Mount Dora Christian, Montverde Academy, Leesburg, First Academy of Leesburg, Tavares, Umatilla, East Ridge, South Lake, and Lake Minneola
Captain Cooper Adams (Senior) had a 73 (2nd Place Overall Individual), followed by a 75 from Taylor Hayes (Sophomore), 78 from Ryan Jeffers (Sophomore), 81 from Luke Van Dyke (Senior), and 82 from Tyler Adams (Sophomore).

The Boys Bowling Team currently stands with a record of 6-3. Our district is a very competitive one, and everyone at EHS should be proud of the effort of this team. Led by Senior Hayden McLachlan's 201 season average, the team is a small but mighty one. Other team members include Paxton VanAlstyne, Lincoln Woodward, Evan Tetrault, Devan McLachlan, and Everett Fretwell. With a little over a month to go in our season, the boys are continuing to work hard to prepare for districts and hopefully another trip to the state tournament at the end of October.

The Boys Golf team played in The Buffalo Invitational on Saturday and had a great showing in the field of 10 teams. Faced with an 10 stroke deficit after 9 holes (halftime), the Panthers rallied on the back nine to tie The Villages after 18 holes (end of regulation). After tying again on the first playoff hole (first overtime), the Panthers finally succumbed to the Buffalo on the second playoff hole (double overtime). The Runner-Up finish was still the best showing from Eustis in this tournament’s history, and is a sign of more good things to come this season! Also, Taylor Hayes was awarded the Silver Medal, placing 2nd Overall as an individual with a 1 under par 71. Go Panthers!
