Last year’s Defending Champion Michael VanDeventer is tied
for the lead at the Hoosier Junior Championship held at Otter Creek GC. VanDeventer and Richmond’s Tyler Pearson posted
impressive 2-under-par 70s today and have a one shot lead over Anderson’s Colin
Proctor.
“I hit the ball really well for the most part today and made
some long putts,” VanDeventer said.
VanDeventer is a senior at Columbus North High School and
will play golf next year at Ball State University.
“It would be pretty special to win two years in a row,”
VanDeventer said. “This is my home
course and my last year playing in this event so it would be nice to go out
with a win.”
Columbus’ Sydney Anderson is the current leader for the
Girl’s Division, also held at Otter Creek GC.
Anderson fired a 5-over-par 77 today, giving her a one shot lead over
Jasper’s Annie Getzin and Anderson’s Morgan Nadaline.
Anderson, a junior at Columbus North High School, looks for
her second win this season, her first coming at Cascade’s GC in a Mountain Dew
Tour event.
Tee times begin tomorrow morning at 9 a.m.
