A trio of Iola High golfers are wrapping up their summer play.
Xander Sellman, Chris Holloway and Brennen Coffield have been competing on the Wichita Junior Tour and the Central Links Tour this summer.
Coffield has earned trips to the championships of the Central Links and Kansas City Tours, finishing in the top-30 of the golfers on each tour. Coffield finished in 10th at Buffalo Dunes Country Club in Garden City on the Central Links Tour.
“What an accomplishment, to go and compete at that level against the best 13-to-15-year-old golfers in the state. That type of success is monumental,” Iola head coach Jeremy Sellman said. “Brennen has been really consistent in his game and his work ethic is second to none. He is at the course every day working on some aspect of his game. It goes to show hard work pays off with measurable success on the course.”
Coffield will compete at the Tiffany Greens Golf Club in Kansas City next week.
Sellman came in first place on the Wichita Junior Tour at the Tex Consoliver Golf Course by shooting a 79. He finished in sixth place in the season-long points race. He then came in seventh place at the Central Links event at the Wamego Country Club, shooting a 79.
Holloway finished his summer with a third place finish at the Tex Consoliver golf course on the Wichita Junior Tour. He claimed fourth place standing in the season-long points.
“I’m super proud of these boys working this hard this summer,” Sellman said. “It will for sure make our team a force to reckon with next season. Having three leaders on the team should drive success for the team and for the season. March needs to hurry up.”
