The East Atchison Lady Wolves’ golf team had a fantastic season and the golfers were presented with awards for their individual and team accomplishments at an awards banquet held Tuesday, November 11, 2025, at the Tarkio First Baptist Church. The girls were coached by Melody Barnett and Shannon Bruns.
