In the past two 6A girls golf state tournaments, Lone Peak’s Saydie Wagner has finished second as a freshman and then third as a sophomore last season — both times behind teammates and 6A medalist Aadyn Long.
After Day 1 of this year’s tournament at MeadowBrook Golf Course, it’s Wagner who will be in the driver’s seat for medalist honors.
Wagner shot a 2-under 70 on Monday, the golfer in the red number in the opening round, and will have a two shot lead over three golfers heading into Tuesday’s final round.
Long is among the golfers well within striking distance as she shot an even-par 72 on Monday along with Weber’s Remi Rawlings and fellow Lone Peak teammate Mikaila Lieu.
Herriman’s Natalie McLane and Bingham’s Stratton Durrant shot 1-over 73s.
As expected, the chase for the team title is a runaway for Lone Peak in its pursuit of a 4-peat. The Knights shot a team score of 289 on Monday. Bingham sits in second place with a 321, followed by Corner Canyon at 330.
