Exciting Times for Local Golfers as Charlotte Roberts and Charlie Garrison Shine at Regional Meet

Carson City is buzzing with excitement as two local high school golfers have secured their spots in the upcoming state tournament! Both Charlotte Roberts from Carson High School and Charlie Garrison from Douglas High School put on amazing performances at the recent Class 5A North regional meet held at the stunning Eagle Valley East golf course.

Roberts Rises to the Occasion

Charlotte Roberts displayed incredible talent and tenacity during her two-day tournament, finishing strong with a score of 86-89–175, which landed her in an impressive 11th place. Facing challenging weather conditions, she made the best of her first day, dubbing it as “really good.” The accomplishment does not just mean another trophy on the shelf; it marks the significant milestone of qualifying for her very first state tournament. As this is her final year of high school golf, it’s an especially meaningful achievement for Charlotte, who plays the sport mainly for enjoyment.

Garrison’s Steady Performance

Meanwhile, the talented freshman Charlie Garrison also displayed prowess on the fairways with a two-day score of 93-87-180. She managed to qualify for the state tournament after overcoming the pressure of being on the potential cut line. With a strong final day performance, Garrison shot an essential 87, which not only secured her spot but also showcased her determination and focus.

One remarkable aspect of Charlie’s journey is how her coach chose to keep her scores a secret during the last round, a strategy to relieve some of the pressure. Even with her nerves running high, Garrison remained composed and relied on her golf skills, particularly her beloved driver for comfort and her 7-iron when precision mattered most.

A Future Full of Promise

Although both Roberts and Garrison attended different schools, they share a common bond—each passionate about golf, nurturing their skills, and dreaming big. With the state meet now looming just around the corner on October 13-14 at the Boulder City Golf Course, both athletes are looking forward to playing more rounds and making the most of this valuable opportunity.

It is noteworthy that neither Carson nor Douglas fielded complete teams for the season, which adds to the significance of these individual accomplishments. However, while Roberts and Garrison move on to the state level, their teammates didn’t quite share the same success this time around. Douglas competitors Morgan Gooch and Mirabelle Detsch took part but unfortunately did not qualify, finishing with scores of 95-98–193 and 104-96–200 respectively. A tough pill to swallow, yet they have shown immense dedication and promise for the future.

The Road Ahead

As the excitement builds for the state tournament, community members and fellow students are rallying behind Roberts and Garrison, cheering them on as they represent their schools and the city. No doubt, all eyes will be on these talented golfers, as they aim to continue their journey and showcase their skills on a bigger stage.

In conclusion, the upcoming state tournament is not just an event; it’s the culmination of hard work, perseverance, and a love for the game. With golf being such a challenging sport, Charlotte and Charlie’s progress is inspiring for any young athlete looking to make their mark. Good luck to both of these amazing golfers as they prepare for this exciting challenge!
