Junior golf<br />

Max Kreikemeier, who will be a junior<br />

at Lafayette, fired the low round of the<br />

18th Missouri Golf Association Junior<br />

Amateur Championship, a 4-under 68, to<br />

come from 2 shots back of Round 1 leader<br />

Matt Hoemann for the title in the boys<br />

16-18 age division at Aberdeen Golf Club.<br />

Kreikemeier, a Forest Hills Country<br />

Club member, finished at 3-under 141<br />

for the championship. He also earned the<br />

James M. Holtgrieve Trophy and a spot on<br />

the 20<strong>17</strong> Mid-America Junior Cup Team<br />

that will travel to Kansas City in October<br />

to compete against the Kansas City Golf<br />

Association.<br />

Claire Solovic, who will be a sophomore<br />

at Seckman, won the girls 16-18 age<br />

group with a 4-over 148 total. She earned<br />

the Barbara A. Berkmeyer Trophy.<br />

Last fall, Solovic tied for first place in<br />

the Class 2 state tournament.<br />

With the victory, Solovic also earned<br />

an automatic spot on the Mid-America<br />

Junior Cup team.<br />

In the Boys 11-13 division, Ryan<br />

Mooney, of Algonquin Golf Club, edged<br />

Luke McLaughlin, of Bellerive, by 2<br />

strokes for the title. Mooney shot a <strong>17</strong>4.<br />

In the Boys 14-15 division, Curt Hastie,<br />

of Sunset Country Club, shot a 158 to win<br />

by seven shots. Hastie will be a freshman<br />

at Chaminade this fall.<br />

High school track and field<br />

Austin Hindman has been named the<br />

2016-<strong>17</strong> Gatorade Missouri Boys Track &<br />

Field Athlete of the Year.<br />

The 6-foot-3, 160-pound Hindman is<br />

the first Gatorade Missouri Boys Track<br />

& Field Athlete of the Year to be chosen<br />

from Lafayette.<br />

“It’s great,” Hindman said. “It’s an awesome<br />

honor to receive. They only honor<br />

one guy in each state and for me to be<br />

selected is really awesome. I’m definitely<br />

honored. I’m super happy to get it.”<br />

The award, which recognizes not only<br />

outstanding athletic excellence but also<br />

high standards of academic achievement<br />

and exemplary character demonstrated on<br />

and off the track, distinguishes Hindman<br />

as Missouri’s best high school boys track<br />

and field athlete.<br />

He won the Gatorade Missouri Boys<br />

Cross Country honor last fall.<br />

Hindman captured three individual<br />

titles and shared in another at the Class 5<br />

state meet this spring, leading the Lancers<br />

to a second-place finish as a team. He<br />

won the 800-meter run with a time of 1:55,<br />

the 1,600-meter in 4:09.69 and broke the<br />

tape in the 3,200-meter in 8:54.92 before<br />

anchoring the winning 4×800 relay quartet,<br />

which clocked a 7:59.30.<br />

Every Gatorade Player of the Year state<br />

winner receives a $1,000 grant to donate.<br />

“I donated my $1,000 from cross country<br />

to an organization in St. Louis called<br />

DASA [Disabled Athlete Sports Association].<br />

They help people with disabilities or<br />

who have physical injuries to help them to<br />

take part in sports again. It’s a great organization.<br />

“I’m going to donate the track money to<br />

them as well. It’s an organization I really<br />

believe in. It’s so cool to be able to do that.<br />

The sports of track and cross country have<br />

given me a lot over the last four years and<br />

to be able to give back and give to a good<br />

charity is really awesome.”<br />

High school girls soccer<br />

Association has released its 20<strong>17</strong> Girls<br />

American Legion District<br />

10 All-Star game<br />

Ballwin infielder Will Pakula, a Marquette<br />

graduate, had two hits and drove<br />

in three runs in the recent District 10 All-<br />

Star game at ABC Ball Park.<br />

Pakula, who recently received a scholarship<br />

to NCAA Division III Fontbonne<br />

University, led the South Division to a 7-5<br />

win over the North Division. His single in<br />

the seventh inning gave the South a 5-2<br />

lead.<br />

The North pulled within a run at 5-4 on<br />

Pakula drove in two runs with a basesloaded<br />

The South team was made up of players<br />

from Ballwin, Manchester and Lemay.<br />

The North team was composed of players<br />

from Kirkwood, Thoman-Boothe and<br />
