Nice Weather and Solid Scores at the Medicine Valley Invite

It feels like we have to emphasize how nice the weather is during the sports season on days when competitions are happening. The reason being, Nebraska weather is a wildcard, as you know. Today at Arrowhead Meadows Golf Course in Curtis, I don't know if you could have asked for a better day with temps in the upper 70's, low 80's and the invite got done jus before the wind came up. It really was a picture-perfect day.

Enough blabbing about the weather, let's get into the results.
