Atlantic Head Coach Ed Den Beste: “Temps were good in Shenandoah today. Wind was a little strong and the greens were fast. We had several that took many holes to get used to greens. Matt had a great front. Shot one over. Then started the back with a triple and went on the boggy run until the last few holes with pars. Cyle was two over on the front and also went on a boggy run on the back. Had 7 holes that he couldn’t get thing going. Braden played pretty consistent today. Good round for him. Drey started rough with a triple and a double two holes later. However, he rallied and had a good score of 83. Tate was playing pretty well. Hole 7 he lost a ball and lost some focus. He parred the next but then took an 8 on 9 and a triple on 10. Still worked to finish in the 90s. Garrett had never see the course so he was learning as he played. Had some good holes and parred his last which was good to see. it is one of the toughest holes on the course.”
