BOZEMAN -- Manhattan Christian's boys and girls golf teams are well-positioned to bring home hardware once again, as the Eagles lead both team races entering Wednesday's final round at Riverside Country Club in Bozeman.
Manhattan Christian senior Caidin Hill, who is aiming for his third State C golf title in three tries, leads the individual race on the boys side after firing an opening-round 72 on Tuesday. Hill struggled on the front nine, going out in 40, but he shot a blistering 32 on the back nine to finish at 1 over par.
Hill's teammates Cullen Visser and Trevor VanDyken are third and fourth, respectively, after shooting 76 and 80 on the opening day.
Westby-Grenora sits second in the team race, 36 strokes behind the Eagles. The Thunder were led by senior Kale Peterson's 3-over-par 73 on Tuesday.
The Manhattan Christian girls have a nine-shot lead over second-place Harlowton, as the Eagles have three golfers in the top eight, led by Grace Aamot's 89.
Lone Peak's TJ Nordahl leads Plentywood freshman Paityn Curtiss by one after the opening round, as Nordahl shot 85 and Curtiss 86. 2019 State C champin Landri Paladichuk of Ennis is third after shooting 88.
