Moffatt's Senior Triumph: Wins Ann Marie Simons Classic

Abington Heights senior Brianna Moffatt captured the individual championship at the Ann Marie Simons Classic, held at Tall Pines Players Club. Moffatt finished with a 5-over-par 75, narrowly defeating Honesdale's Marley Reynolds by one stroke. Her performance, coupled with teammates Margot Grad and Liz George each shooting an 82, propelled Abington Heights to win the team title with a total score of 239. This victory marks a significant achievement for Moffatt, who had previously placed third and second in prior years of the tournament.

Moffatt's round demonstrated remarkable perseverance. She started with a 39 on the front nine but faced adversity with a triple-bogey on the eighth hole. However, she refocused, sinking a critical 20-foot putt on the final hole to seal her win. Coach Ed Bath praised the team's mental maturity and decision-making, noting their consistent performance around their season averages. Reynolds also had a strong showing, birdying two of her final holes and nearly achieving a hole-in-one on her last.
