The Lady Haymakers Golf Team are District Runner-Up and STATE BOUND!
The Haymakers finished with a team score of 390, but the runner-up finish did not come easy. With the top three teams advancing to State, the Haymakers and Adams Central were tied for second and headed into a playoff on Hole 18 to determine the runner-up.
All five varsity golfers stepped up and played one more hole, and the Haymakers came out on top by just one stroke!
Individually, Ella Atchison finished as District Runner-Up with an 81.
Also contributing to the team score were Emma Howerter, Morgan Mraz and Mollie Spradlin. Baylee Eldridge also competed with the Haymakers today.
Congratulations, girls! What a finish at districts. Now it’s time to get ready for State!
GO HAYMAKERS!

A special moment for Cozad Girls Golf! Senior Lady Haymakers Ella Atchison, Emma Howerter, and Morgan Mraz recently placed plaques on the record boards recognizing two big team victories this season.
On September 21, the Lady Haymakers earned a team victory at the Dawson County Triangular against Lexington and Gothenburg.
Then on September 29, the girls captured the Southwest Conference Championship here at home, finishing with a team score of 385 and coming out on top against Broken Bow, Gothenburg, Holdrege, McCook, Minden, and Ogallala.
The conference championship was especially meaningful for the program. The last time Cozad Girls Golf won the conference was in 2015 at Valentine. With Valentine no longer part of the conference, this championship marks a special accomplishment for this group of girls and the Cozad golf program.
It was only fitting that our three seniors, Ella, Emma, and Morgan, placed both plaques on the record boards and left their mark on Cozad Girls Golf history.
Way to go, Lady Haymakers! We’re proud of you!

Important Phone Scam Awareness Notice
The Nebraska Department of Education has alerted schools about a phone scam recently reported in several Nebraska communities.
Callers falsely claim to be school employees and tell parents their child is in trouble or involved in an emergency. They may pressure parents to meet somewhere or tell them not to hang up or contact anyone else.
These calls are fraudulent. If you receive a concerning call about your child, hang up and contact your child's school directly using the school's published phone number.
Please be cautious of unknown callers who create a sense of urgency, and report suspicious calls to local law enforcement and your child's school.
Thank you for helping keep our families and community safe.
