Boys Golf Wraps Up Season at Bedford Valley State Tournament

Posted on 06/09/2025

The Western team finished off their historic season with a trip to the State Finals at Bedford Valley GC in Gull Lake, Michigan. Unfortunately, the boys got off to a sluggish start in round one shooting a score of 337 good for 16th place. Captain Eli Herrington was the lone bright spot on day one as he fired a 79. On day two the boys showed their competitive spirit and mental toughness as they bounced back and shot a score of 318 good for 10th place on the day. Andrew Boldt shot a 74, followed by Captain Hayden Kim's 75, Tony Miller's 84, and Sutton Johnston's 85. Their combined score of 355 was good for a 14th place finish in the State. While the team was disappointed in their day one round, it did not take away from  their incredible season. Many would say that golf is the ultimate individual sport; this team would argue that it is the ultimate team game. Time and time again, they rallied around each other and willed each other to success. They truly measured their ind

This week the Parma Western Panthers Girls Tennis Team competed in the State Finals at the University of Michigan.  The team finished 10th in the state with 8 points which are the 2nd highest for both in school history.  One of the highlights from the tournament was 3 doubles of Anna Wilcox and Karly Foster were seeded #5 and beat Edwardburg in the 2nd round, then beat #4 seed East Grand Rapids in the quarterfinals and then lost to the #1 seed Marian with a score of 3-6, 3-6, which is the best finish by any flight in school history.  As a result, the Panthers 3 doubles team is the best public school team in that flight and are the first players to be seeded multiple times at the State Finals in Western history.  Another highlight was that 4 doubles of Anna Willinger and Silvia Baker were seeded #6 who beat Grand Rapids Catholic Central and ended up losing to #3 seed East Grand Rapids.  Other flights who won matches and gained points for the team were
