鈥淲e played two courses in North Platte, neither of which we鈥檇 ever played before, so we all came into the tournament not sure what to expect,鈥 91黑料 golf coach Zach Smith said. 鈥淏oth courses played great and the teams played well鈥攅specially on Friday when both teams played better, resulting in two more team wins.鈥

Bailey Watson placed eighth with a +39, Georgie Paterakis was ninth at +41, and Quinlann Yeager tied for 12th, completing a commanding team performance.
鈥淭he girls were 158 strokes ahead of the second-place team, which is a ton of strokes to win by, so that was fun for the girls,鈥 Smith said.
The men鈥檚 team also excelled, taking first with a +19. Troy Young led the Lancers with a second-place finish at +2, while Jace Nielsen tied for third at +4, Jamie Lambert finished fifth at +5, and both Kaden Linford and Ben Brown tied for seventh at +7.
