Rangers grab win

---

THE HERALD ■ THURSDAY, AUGUST 15, 2013

Rangers grab win From Herald Staff Reports In collaring its second victory in two days, the Forest Park girls golf team also learned a valuable lesson: with GIRLS balance come GOLF results. No Ranger golfer broke 50, nor did anyone shoot higher than 56, creating an equilibrium that afforded Forest Park (217) a sizeable victory over Heritage Hills (251) on Wednesday at Old English Golf Course. Brie Englert assembled a 51 to earn medalist honors for the Rangers, while Eryn Jochim (54) notched the low score for Heritage Hills. Jordan Buechler and Kaylyn Gaesser each chipped in with a 55 for Forest Park while Ashley Reckelhoff posted a 56. The Patriots’ Dallas Buse fired a 64, Riley Spencer nabbed a 66 and Caroline Guth and Ashleigh Gideon both recorded 67s. COMING UP
