(Clarinda) Atlantic downed a pair of Hawkeye Ten Boys Golf opponents on Monday. Lane Nelson led the way with a 35 to earn medalist honors.
The Trojans shot 155 to beat both Clarinda’s 168 and Creston’s 201. Nelson’s 35 was the low round for the Trojans while Tristan Hayes shot a 38. Cruz Weaver’s 40 and Garrett McLaren’s 42 counted towards the team score while Tate Niklasen and Roth Den Beste rounded out he lineup with scores of 45 and 47, respectively.
Coach Ed Den Beste says, “This was a great win on an away course that you need to have some local knowledge to play well. Great to see Lane and Tristan in the 30’s. Cruz continues to keep playing well. Garrett wasn’t happy with his score. This was Tate’s first round on varsity so a solid score. Roth had some tough holes but worked hard to keep it low.”
