John Sand carded a one-under-par 34 to lead Hoquiam past Montesano in a Southwest Washington 1A League match Tuesday, Oct. 18, at Oaksridge Golf Course in Elma.

Montesano had one of its finest performances, with Austin Peterson carding a 42.

“That was an outstanding effort on our part, but we just don’t have an answer for their No. 1 guy,” Monte coach Lloyd Aldrich observed. “But it is good to see a number of our kids playing well at this point of the season.”

Hoquiam (166) — John Sand 34, Parker McCormick 50, Ryan Cole 46, Tayte Witherbee 55, Josh Burgher 42, Brayden Dayton 44.

Montesano (176) — Payson Parker 44, Austin Peterson 42, Matthew Plato 48, Noah Quinn 43, Ryan Nicholson 47, Kyler Doll 55.

JV — Montesano 194, Hoquiam 206. Ben Royer 44 for Montesano, which finishes with unbeaten JV record.
