Golfers Brenner Booth and Kate DeShaw are this week’s Leskovar Honda Athletes of the Week.
The honors come after they claimed overall titles at the Junior City Championship tournament last week at the Highland View Golf Course. Both will be key players for the Butte High golf teams, which open the season this week in Great Falls.
Booth takes home the boys’ honor for winning the boys’ 15-17 division title and the overall crown. He followed a 39 with a 37 on the back nine for a 76, beating Bulldog teammate Chase Choquette by one shot.
Booth will be a senior this school year. He is looking to close out his Butte High career on a high note after placing 18th at the Class AA State tournament last fall.
DeShaw receives the girls’ honor after winning the 12-15 title. She shot an 85 to run away with the overall tournament championship.
DeShaw will be a sophomore this season for the Bulldogs. She has been a varsity player since she was in the eighth grade.
For the second year, Leskovar Honda, home of the 20-year, 200,000-mile warranty, is teaming up with the ButteCast to honor the finest student-athletes from the Mining City in an effort to encourage more children to get up, get out and try all kinds of sports and activities.
