Coach Ed DenBeste says:

It was a windy day but finally had a nice temperature.  It was nice to see
Matt Thielen put down a great score of 39 in the wind.  He was medalist.
Also nice to see Ben Nelson shot a 40 for runner-up medalist.  It would have
been nice to have two other scores come in the low 40s or high 30s.  Evan
and Travis both shot a 43 but I know it could have been better.  Sam Renaud
looked better but knows he can go lower.  Sam Markham struggled on a couple
of holes otherwise would have been pretty good.  Now we need to start
getting some lower rounds.  I know we can do it.

I am also happy with our JV.  They did well in the wind.  Nice to see Cole
Lowary shot a 42.  Great round for him.  We had three others in the 40 to
finish with a 184.  Now we need to finish strong at Denison to finish up the
JV season.
