Fort Madison — Holy Trinity’s Alli Robu finished with an 18-over 90 to claim the Super Conference Girls’ Golf crown yesterday at Sheaffer Memorial Golf Course in Fort Madison.

Robu finished just one stroke better than that of New London’s Taylor Phillips who ended her 18 hole day with a 91.

Columbus’ Jobie Lekwa and Natalie Wilcox of Danville each carded 96’s — that broke the schools’ 18-hole record — while Sophie Mallot finished with a 98 to round out the top-five yesterday.

New London won the team title ending their afternoon with 404 strokes, 52 to the good of second place Danville.

Louisa-Muscatine finished third, while Van Buren and Highland rounded out the top-five.

Abbie Cooley led Winfield-Mount Union, while Taryn Miller was the top finisher for Mediapolis.
