(Peru, Neb.) – Normally, you do not think about having a nice day to play golf in March of any year. However, the Peru State College (PSC) Bobcat golf team matched the weather on its opening day of March 30 as they, too, were hot!
The Bobcat team defeated the visiting College of St. Mary 354 to 382 at the Table Creek Golf Course in Nebraska City. The 354 score was a new team record for Peru State.
Jordan Schaardt
(Humboldt) was the medalist and shot an 84. Other golfer's scores figuring in on the total were Courtney Musgrave
(Lincoln) – 85, Katie Potter
(Omaha) – 87, and Ellen Larsen
(Lincoln) – 98. Jacey Stoner
(Alda) also played and shot a 114.
Bobcat coach
Brett Hahn was pleased with the win. Hahn said, “We had perfect weather for the first competition of the spring season. The course was challenging with the high rough but the girls played great tee to green. They showed just how far we have come in a short amount of time. Jordan really came out and showed why she is the inaugural captain.”
Hahn continued, “Courtney hit the ball as well as she has since becoming a Bobcat and was just a few short putts away from medalist honors. Most impressive was Katie with her 87. She has really shown a lot of focus and determination this spring. I could not have asked for a better start to our spring season. Every girl has really made a conscious effort to work harder than we did in the fall and we are hoping for our scores to show it.”
The team played on April 1 and 2 in the Nebraska Wesleyan Invite in Lincoln and results will be reported in another release.
