— Janesville Parker High School’s girls golf team had its Big Eight dual meet undefeated string snapped here Wednesday at Krueger-Haskell in Beloit.

Madison East posted a 358 to Parker’s 372 in a conference season-opening double dual. Beloit Memorial fielded an incomplete score, playing just two golfers.

“I’ll take the blame,” said Parker coach John Zimmerman, whose team went 8-0 in winning the championship last season. “I didn’t have the team ready to to play.’’

Parker’s Molly Rozeboom fired an 46-39—85, and teammate Katie Brossard followed with an 43-44—87. Amanda Becker shot 47-49—96, and Jennifer Polglaze finished with a 53-51—104.

The Vikings play in the Milton Best Ball Tournament today at Oak Ridge.
