Atlantic Head Coach Ed Den Beste: “We knew going into this meet that it was going to be tough.  We figured that we needed to shoot in the 310s to win and probably needed to be in the low 320s to get second and move on.  We were close. 325 is a good score but not to move on today. Pretty amazing that we sent three individuals onto to Districts but didn’t move on as a team. We needed a couple of guys in the mid to high 70s to move on as a team.  Drey had a great front. One over but then struggled to get pars on the back. Braden was 8 over after 6 holes but strung 6 pars in a row and finished 3 over on the back. Garrett had a better front and Lane was the same on both sides. Cruz had a bad hole 18 that hurt.  Otherwise would have been mid 90s. Roth continued to improve. Best front he has shot. Now Braden, Drey and Garrett move onto Districts in Orange City.  Hopefully they play well and make it to state.”
District play will be next Friday in Orange City.
