The Southland boys golf team opened it’s season and got a solid performance from it’s top golfer but it fell to Rushford/Peterson 182 to 207 Friday in Rushford.

The Rebels were led by Matt Brietbarth, who shot a 46, while R/P’s Todd Vesterse was meet medalist with a 43.

“Matt was consistent today and the other boys were not. That was the difference,” Southland head boys golf coach Tim Brennan said. “Considering our home course opened this past Wednesday and we’ve only had one course practice, I am not displeased. R/P has been practicing on their course for almost two weeks.”

Southland scores: Brietbarth, 46; Matt Walk, 53; Karsen Ulwelling, 54; Luke Simon, 54
