While there was plenty of drama
in the championship division, a Good
golfer played really, really well to
win the handicap division.
Ross Good shot an 89 which
translated into an 8-under par 64 on
the handicap sheet to win the title by
four strokes.
To put in perspective how well
Good played, consider that his 89

Dale Juntunen was another player
on fire in the handicap division. His
straight total of 84 was only one off
the championship's winning total.
When combined with his handicap,
the score dipped to a 4-under 68 and

Dakota high school girls basketball players
made another successful and memorable trip to
Honolulu, Hawaii, capturing their fifth-consec-
utive title in late June at the annual Flying
Hawaiian Tournament in Oahu.
This particular team really epitomized to the
fullest extent the system we like to employ, and
with each game they kept on getting better and
better on both ends of the floor. The trust they
developed with each other on the floor was a
special thing to watch.
The North Dakota contingent, dubbed the "Frozen
Chosen," went a perfect 4-0 in tournament play. Rolla
graduate Mary Jo Guilbert was a key part of the team's
success.
The North Dakota contingent, dubbed the
"Frozen Chosen," went a perfect 4-0 in tourna-
ment play. Six players scored for the team in
their opening 36-28 win against Sacred Heart
of Oahu, led by nine points from Chelsea
Nielsen and eight from Anna Mauch.
Ten players scored in the team's second.
game, a 38-16 win against host LeJardin Acad-
emy of Oahu. Mary Jo Guilbert scored 12 points
as the team played great defense in a 36-9 win
over LeJardin Blue to reach the title game.
In the championship game the "Chosen" put
together their best performance of the tourna-
ment, racing out to a 30-15 halftime lead. The
team continued steady play in the second half
to defeat the Oahu "East-Siders" by a 43-32
score. Guilbert led the way with 10 points and
Miranda Ripplinger added nine.
The team has now won the tournament five
years running, but the trip wasn't just about
basketball. The girls and accompanying family
and friends also visited Pearl Harbor, snorkled
at Jaunama Bay, parasailed, attended a luau,
toured the island, and of course, swam and en-
joyed the beaches of Waikiki for the entire
week.
