Cameron Morgan’s golf season
was a record-breaking All-State
performance for the Chippewa Hills
sports program.
Morgan became the school’s first
All-Stater in golf when he placed
eighth with rounds of 78 and 80. He
was six strokes away from medalist
David Ansley of Traverse City St.
Francis with a 152.
Chippewa Hills was seventh
overall as a team. Behind Morgan
in scoring was Brandon Slasor
170. Dylan Boerma with 170,
Marcus Barnes with 190 and Bode
McArthur with 196.
Morgan shot an 80 on Saturday
and coupled with his 78 from
Friday he had a 158 to take eighth.
He was only six strokes behind
medalist David Ansley of Traverse
City St. Francis.
“He had a couple of bad breaks
but he bounced back. I’m pretty
proud of the guy,” Starck said. “He’s
f
irst one placing in the top 10 at the
state finals.”
“Conditions were hard but
ending up in the top 10 I was pretty
happy,” Morgan said. “I don’t think
the rain cost me any strokes. It was
the mental errors. The rain can have
an effect. Everyone is playing under
the same conditions.”
Morgan was the individual
champion for the Central State
Activities Association.
He had a best round of 71 during
the season.
“I got the ball on the green and
I was making putts,” he recalled. “I
was playing good golf.”
Morgan has had offers for college
golf but said he has not yet made a
decision.
