Meet No. 5 is the Mountain West Classic, being held Saturday, September 29 at the University of Montana Golf Course in Missoula. Below, you’ll find meet information, including the schedule, bus leave time and other important details. This should be a fantastic meet, as all about 80 high schools schools from Montana, Idaho and Washington will be in action.
At the bottom of this email, I have provided information about this week’s spaghetti feed.
