GALION — On Tuesday, September 4, Valley View Golf Course in Galion was one of the sites for the Division II, Northwest District Sectional Girls Golf Tournament.

In competition on the day at Valley View were golfers representing the Colonel Crawford Lady Eagles, the Clear Fork Lady Colts and the Galion Lady Tigers. In sectional play, the top-three teams advance to the district tournament, as well as the top-three individuals not on advancing teams.

Cotsamire shot a 47 on the front-nine and a 52 on the back-nine to record an 18-hole score of 99. That score was good for 13th overall in the field and good enough to earn the final advancing spot in the rankings.
