Civic Memorial captured the team conference championship with a score of 370. Highland was next with 405, followed by Triad with a 428, Waterloo with 447 and Mascoutah with a 459. Maisey Watson led CM with an 87 to finish third individually. Other Eagles team members were Reagan Walters, with a 92, Carmen Phillips, had a 94, and Sophie Bagoue scored a 97.
Jersey head girls coach Bryan Brown said he was exceptionally proud of Tuttle for capturing the individual crown.
Tuttle had a slow start on the Belk Golf Course, but he said she rallied and returned to form. Jersey did not compete in the team competition because of a lack of golfers and Tuttle has been on the boys' squad all season until now, her coach said.
