Weather could cut short 5A, 4A girls state golf tournaments
CARBONDALE — The weather woes continue to be a factor for spring state championships. Though the first days of the Class 4A and 5A girls golf state tournaments will get underway, Tuesday could be a different story.
The weather forecast calls for rain and thunderstorms in both Carbondale (site of 4A) and Loveland (5A) for the second day of the tournaments which could throw a wrench into things.
According CHSAA associate commissioner Tom Robinson, who oversees golf, should the conditions be unplayable Tuesday, the first round scores will hold up as the final results of the tournament.
“We’re going to do our best to make sure we get both rounds of the tournament in,” Robinson said. “The only thing that will stop that — as what’s happened all spring — is the weather. Per our rules, if we get one round in and can no longer play, that round will determine the championship. But again, we are going to do everything possible to get both rounds in.”
The only reason the tournaments would get pushed back to Wednesday is if a team tie existed and a playoff was necessary.
CHSAANow will update this story as more information becomes available.
