Five RPAC Squads Compete at the DCS Golf Invite

On Tuesday, Dundy County Stratton hosted its yearly golf meet at the Benkelman Golf Club. Six teams were in attendance: Chase County, then the RPAC field: Paxton, Dundy County Stratton, Southwest, and Hitchcock County. Also, some teams were missing golfers due to ACT Testing. The weather was fantastic, especially in the morning. In the afternoon, the winds did come up but still, a good day.

The Tigers were the runner ups with a 354. Paxton has a chance to do some cool things this season if they have performances like this.

Dundy County Stratton

DCS had some really solid outings for their squad. Dante Horner broke 80, with a 79, and finished 4th. Austin Sydow took 13th with a 95 and Owen Mathews finished 14th wth a 96. As a team, a 3rd place finish and a 373. At home, the Tigers did a solid job.

We caught up with Horner after the nice outing.

Southwest

The Roughriders finished 4th with a 399. Houston Billeter set a new low score for Southwest's record book, a 76 and finished 3rd. Dylan Cornwell shot a 99 and Alex Lashley had a 105. This team could improve as the season rolls on.

We chatted with Billeter after the invite.

Hitchcock County

Hitchcock County's main varsity golfers were out as they were taking the ACT. But this was a great opportunity to get some young or inexperienced golfers on a straightforward course. As a team, they finished 5th with a 412. Kaiah Johnson shot a 139, and Jill McArthur had a 133. Like we said, this was a great chance for these golfers to get into some varsity competition.

Wallace

Wallace didn't have a full team, so they did not get a team score. But Tyson Sullivan and Micah Garrison played great. Sullivan finished 9th with an 86, and Garrison finished 15th with a 97.
