The WHS Mule golf team finished their interleague match on Thursday with a 173-208 home win over Three Rivers Christian School, moving their record to 24-1 with their lone blemish being a loss at Willapa Valley.

Leading the Mules was medalist Austin Good, a junior, who shot 41. Tying for second was senior Bradley Peek and junior Zach Calvert, each scoring 42; however, Zach's score did not count in the team score because he was playing in the six spot. Sophomore Elliot Haney tied senior Brook Calvert at 45. Also playing for the Mules were seniors Brysen Coleman, who scored a 51, and Eli McEleroy, who scored a 57.

The two titans (each with just one loss) will clash on Tuesday and Wednesday at the District 4 Championship Tournament in Cosmopolis. The Mules are trying to reclaim the trophy that they have won four out of a possible six times since Wahkiakum started their golf program.

District 4's state qualifier allocation has been lowered from 18 players in 2012 to 8 players this year due to the WIAA's decision to lower the number of district qualifiers from 80 to 40 players state wide. The Mules sent 5 players in 2012, the most in school history, and with all players returning they hope to send at least that many this year. Each school can send six players to District and a maximum of six to State if they qualify.
