Teen Golfer Sets Course Record At Hidden Meadows

Monday’s heat and humidity and four bogies didn’t prevent Old Town teenager Chris Kauppila from setting the course record at the Hidden Meadows Golf Course in Old Town. The 17-year-old Kauppila fired a three-under par 68 to break the previous record, which was set by Connor Morey in 2016, by one stroke. Kauppila, the reigning Penobscot Valley Conference Class B Player of the Year, registered an eagle, five birdies and eight pars to go with his four bogies. He began his round eagle-birdie, made bogies on number four and number seven, and finished the front nine with a birdie on the ninth hole for a three-under par 33. On the back nine, he notched birdies on 12 and 16, and bogies on 15 and 17 for an even-par 35. He said starting the day eagle-birdie was “big.” “On the par five first hole, I put it on (the green) in two and sank something like a 15-foot putt for eagle.
