On the boys side Ethan Choi and Carter Graf both shot 3 under 67 in the same group for a one shot lead.

Highwood Golf is proud to see players test their skill on the renovated par 3 6th hole along the river. Ethan de Graaf pulled off his first ever competitive hole-in-one on the 6th hole Tuesday during a rollercoaster round of 2 over 72.

Cooper Lindberg has a 2 shot lead in the Juvenile Boys Championship while Kaitlyn Wingnean leads the Juvenile Girls Championship by 3 strokes.
