"We were happy to have Taylor back in action after missing Thursday's meet in Barron due to illness," NHS coach Stacy Burfield said. "She really adds a lot to our team in terms of playing ability and leadership.

"She and Hayley had a great front nine, but the back nine proved to be a little more challenging for nearly everyone."

Other scores for Superior were Anne Tracy's 103 and Abby Clemons' 108.

"Superior shot amazingly well," Burfield said. "Hidden Greens is a difficult course for girls golf, but Superior showed otherwise.

"The course was beautiful as ever and the girls took advantage."

The Tigers host Barron at 4 p.m. Monday while Superior hosts Ladysmith and Chetek at 4:30 p.m. Monday.
