U-Hi’s Frame shoots 64

If Hank Frame wasn’t the man to beat in Greater Spokane League boys golf, he firmly established that position Monday in the league’s fourth tournament of the season at The Creek at Qualchan.

The University senior carded an 8-under-par 64 that included eight birdies and no bogeys – he had nine 4s, seven 3s, one 5 (a par) and one 2 – for a seven-shot margin over Ferris junior Garrett Howard.

Frame has a 68.5 shot average in the first four tournaments – the fifth and final one before district play is Thursday at The Fairways – and has won or shared first in each.

Lewis and Clark, with five golfers within five shots of one another among the first 12, put together a 384 team score for an 11-stroke margin over Ferris. U-Hi was third at 398.

Junior Justin Haase of LC and senior Mick McCaslin of Mead matched 74s for third.

•GSL girls golf: LC junior Chessey Thomas shot a par 72 for a two-stroke victory over Mt. Spokane freshman Savana Bezdicek to lead the Tigers’ runaway win at Qualchan.

The Tigers had three of the top four golfers and six of the top 10. LC freshmen Megan Haase and Sydney Kersten were third and fourth with 75 and 76, respectively.
