There are five tournaments in Dexter's future- the Notre Dame Invitational on March 31st, the Farmington Invitational on April 9th, the Poplar Bluff Invitational on April 14th, the SEMO Conference Tournament on April 22nd, and the Jackson Invitational April 28th.

"Notre Dame will probably have the best team-golf around here this year and Poplar Bluff is always pretty good," Sitze said. "Cape and Jackson are also always really good. Those four schools are four of the top in the area."

Dexter will compete against teams from Park Hills Central, Farmington, Fredericktown, Kennett, North County, Notre Dame, Perryville, Potosi, Sikeston and Ste. Genevieve. Crown Pointe Golf Club will host the district at the end of the season.
