Unfortunately for the Miners, the streak extended to four on Thursday afternoon. Despite a fifth-place individual finish from senior Saylor Rabe, Park City fell to the Thunder yet again, but still was able to capture second place at the UHSAA 3A State Tournament at Sleepy Ridge in Orem. Desert Hills finished with 612 points, while the Miners finished with 588. Dixie finished in third with 563. “Coming up a little short again,” Head Coach George Murphy said. “It wasn’t as close They’ve been through a lot. To have those girls put Park City on the map with girls’ golf is pretty incredible. … George Murphy Golf coach seven strokes behind the leaders. Following Rabe for Park City was Mckenzie Schow, who finished with 174 strokes for the two days, while Tai Miller and Grace Donahue tallied 181 and 184 strokes, respectively.

It was cold.” The end of the state tournament marks the closing chapter of an era at Park City, as its two seniors, Rabe and Miller, will be graduating. Rabe, who was holding back tears as she walked off of the 18th green on the final day of competition, has been a top 3A golfer in the state since she was a freshman, while Miller has been a pivotal piece to the Miners’ success these last few years. Murphy isn’t sure if the team would have gotten this far without Rabe or Miller. “I’ll miss those girls,” Murphy said. “I spent a lot of time with them and practices in cold, cold weather. They’ve been through a lot. To have those girls put Park City on the map with girls’ golf is pretty incredible. … Those two are a big reason why Park City was able to accomplish that.” Rabe and Miller may be departing, but like they did when THURSDAY JUNE 1, 2017 4:00 - 7:00 PM THE YARD // BONEYARD // WINE DIVE Join Park City Chamber/Bureau as we kick off the summer season by highlighting 40 local business that offer summer activities while mixing and mingling with friends FREE FOOD // CASH BAR // PRIZES & GIVEAWAYS visitparkcity.com Parking available behind The Yard.
