    The Eden Prairie High School (EPHS) girls golf team competed in an invitational tournament on Tuesday, May 15, at Bunker Hills Golf Course in Coon Rapids. The 18-hole event, which began with an 11:30 a.m. shotgun start, featured 20 high school teams from around the region.

    A shotgun start places teams on different holes at the beginning of the tournament. For example, a team might start on the 5th hole and finish on the 4th hole after completing the round.

    Competing teams included Andover, Anoka, Armstrong, Blaine, Centennial, Chanhassen, Coon Rapids, East Ridge, Eastview, Forest Lake, Irondale, Mahtomedi, Mounds View, Osseo, Park Center, Rogers, Saint Michael-Albertville, Spectrum, Spring Lake Park, Stillwater, Totino-Grace, Two Rivers, and Wayzata.

    EPHS finished 10th out of the 20 teams, according to head coach Marty Teigen.
