Cheney golfers end season in fourth

PULLMAN — Cheney boys golf competed in a pair of tournaments last week, one a non-league and the other in Greater Spokane League play.

Individually for Cheney Ryan Howe shot a 77 and got a 79 from Brayden Anderson, 80 from Blake Kernen and 81 from Kyren Fleming.

In the Greater Spokane League’s fourth match and concluding of the season was played at Qualchan in what coach Justin Fayant called tough conditions.

“It was pouring down hail on the first tee as we started the day and in true Spokane fashion we saw rain, wind, hail and some sunshine as well,” Fayant wrote in an email.

Despite the weather Justin Krasselt finished tied for fifth at plus-two,

Howe finished in a tie for 14 with a five-over. Brayden Anderson finished tied for 16th with a six-over, Fleming was tied at 19th with seven-over and Kernen finished a nine-over tied for 26th.  

Cheney finished fourth in the Greater Spokane Leage and qualified for the Kalispell Invite next week at Kalispell Country Club in north Spokane.
