Emma Cox paired her best round of high school golf with another 76-stroke finish to win the 4A district championship Tuesday, on the Tri-Mountain Golf Course in Ridgefield.
“It’s awesome being able to play two great days in a row,” Cox said. “I finished strong (Monday) and had a four-stroke lead. It all depended on how I played (Tuesday). I stayed zen, I stayed focused on each shot, trusted myself and was able to accomplish my goal of becoming district champion.”
Hailey Oster led the field in the finals, with a 75, to secure second place. She improved her score by five strokes to complete a two-day total of 155.
“I was really disappointed with how I played in the first round because I know I’m a lot better than that,” Oster said. “I was just trying to stay positive and just take it one shot at a time.”
Those two Papermakers helped the Camas girls golf team win the tournament by a landslide.
