Eight boys golfers from Kansas are taking on eight Nebraska athletes today and Tuesday, Aug. 3 and 4, in junior cup match play.
The golfers are facing off at ArborLinks in Nebraska City. Kansas representatives include a mix of recent high school graduates and returning high school students.
The 2009 graduates are Elliott Soyez, Goddard; Sam Schulte, Buhler; Jeff Jarvis, Phillipsburg; and Jeremy Gant, Chanute. Rounding out the Kansas group: Michael Gellerman of Sterling and Jack Cantele of Kapaun Mt. Carmel, both incoming juniors, and Caleb Childs of Bishop Carroll and Thane Ringler of Hutchinson, who will be seniors.
Nebraska players have won the past three junior cups, and they lead Kansas in the overall results 12-11. The Sunflower State contingent could even the tally in 2009, the 24th year for the Kansas-Nebraska Junior Cup.
The Kansas team features a defending state champion, Gellerman, who won the Class 3A title this spring.
Next year’s junior cup will be at Prairie Dunes in Hutchinson.
