Orono senior Ava Hanneman hit a solid approach shot on the long par-3, hole No. 7, getting within about 3 feet of the hole. That shot kick-started her momentum for the final round. By the time she reached No. 17, she had a four-stroke lead.
Hanneman drew on her past state tournament experience and hard work to shoot 70 for a two-round total of 142 to take first place Wednesday at the Class 3A girls golf state tournament at Bunker Hills Golf Club in Coon Rapids. She pulled away from a tight leaderboard headed into the final round.
“Honestly, I was just trying to be patient with myself and let some things come to me,” Hanneman said. “This is the best way to finish it off.”
