TULSA – Vying to become back-to-back state champions, the Stillwater girl’s golf team fell just short Tuesday MeadowBrook Country Club.
The Lady Pioneers came out of Monday with a one-stroke lead, but they knew some other teams would make a run Tuesday. A slight dip in their performance led to a nine-stroke deficit, but they rallied and finished two strokes behind champion Edmond North.
