Reilly Whitlock made a 6-foot par putt on the first sudden death hole to lift Union to the title in the Titan Cup girls golf tournament on Monday at Tri-Mountain Golf Course.
The extra hole was needed after Camas and Union split six head-to-head matches. Karsyn Rushing, Union’s No. 4 player, provided a key win in that match.
Whitlock and Rushing teamed to win their morning alternate-shot match as the Titans beat Prairie 2½-½. Taylor Hartley of Union also won her singles match against Camas and teamed with Alicia Kwon for an alternate-shot win against Prairie.
For Camas, Rio Smith had a good day. She won her singles match and teamed with Hailey Oster to help the Papermakers defeat Hockinson 2-1 in the alternate-stroke match.
This is the third time in four years that the Titan Cup has been decided with a playoff.
