OMS Golfers Take on the IESA Sectionals! We are incredibly proud of these six OMS golfers who competed in the IESA Sectional yesterday and today! Braden Deal Ian Welch Baylor McDaniel Jack Milligan Elena Dilbeck Harleigh Siliskie Unlike many school sports, these golfers don't have a traditional season or an official OMS team. Instead, they put in the work on their own throughout the spring and summer, practicing, playing, and continuing to develop their game — and that dedication earned them the opportunity to compete at the IESA Sectional. We couldn't be more proud of these six athletes for representing Olympia Middle School and putting their hard work to the test. Congratulations, golfers! Your dedication and love for the game are something to be proud of!
