STEVENS POINT – Wisconsin Rapids earned a win at the sixth leg of the Wisconsin Valley Conference Boys Golf Tournament on Monday at Stevens Point Country Club, keeping its faint hopes for a conference championship alive.

Wisconsin Rapids is two points behind Wausau West for the lead in the overall team standings, meaning it would need to finish two spots ahead of West at the final meet of the tournament on Friday at Pine Valley Golf Course in Marathon to earn a tie for the championship.

Stevens Point’s Ethan Thomas was meet medalist with a 78, three shots ahead of D.C. Everest’s Andy Ziemer. Skifton was third, and Owen Bunnell of D.C. Everest finished fourth with an 83.

Ziemer opened up a six-point lead over his teammate Bunnell for overall individual lead heading into the final meet.
