With his total originally posted on the board as a 76, Jake Wass walked over to the scorer’s table and conceded that he had actually carded a 77 at the York Class 3A regional Tuesday at Oak Meadows Golf Course in Addison.

The senior’s great show of sportsmanship ended up not costing him at all as Wass later found out he had advanced as an individual to Monday’s St. Charles East Class 3A regional.

He finished in a tie for 12th place individually and was easily under the cutoff for qualifying, which turned out to be 81.

“I shot 34 on my front nine, which was the back-nine here,” Wass said. “I played really well and hit almost every green. When I got to the back, the weather started to change. It went from still to 30-mph winds. That affected me for the most part along with the pressure I was putting on myself.

“I was happy with how I played on the front and I would have liked to be four or five shots better on the back.”

The senior also made it to the sectional as an individual a year ago.

“It is nice,” he added. “It is what I really wanted to happen being a senior. It really was my only main goal, to make it to the sectional.

“My year has been up-and-down. I placed third at the Addison Trail Invite with a 73 and my stroke average has been somewhere around 38. But I’m happy with how the season has gone.”
As a team, the Rams finished in 10th place with a score of 363.

Alex Mika was next with a 92 while Eddie Mahay and Kevin Farrell each shot a 97. Ernie Santeralli (100) and Jordan Smith (106) also competed in the regional.
