RICHMOND – Kennedy Wrisinger considered her performance in Monday’s Odessa Tournament at Shirkey Golf Course in Richmond a reminder of the importance of staying hungry and humble. After “a really strong week last week” that included medal-winning performances in match and tournament play, the Richmond junior speculated she was “probably a little too confident” when she started her 18-hole, par-71 round.

RICHMOND – Board member Jonathon Renfro’s call for a mask mandate to kick in if the number of Richmond School District absentees from COVID-19 were to reach 5% of the student population failed. Renfro could not get any board members to “second” his motion, meaning the board did not bother to vote on the suggestion during the special meeting Monday at the middle school.
