Due to frosty conditions at the Blue Tiger Invite in Jefferson City, Missouri, not only was the tournament shorted from 54 holes to 36 holes, play was also suspended for three hours on Tuesday.
Once play commenced, the NWOSU Men’s golf team finished in 14th place with a 625 team score (310-315).
Preston Ewing was the top scorer for the Rangers with a score of 155 after shooting a round of 78 on Tuesday. Tyler Berryhill was right behind his teammate with a 156, followed by Ben Baker with a 157 card.
Parker Rehorn went 80 and 81 in the two rounds for a final score of 161. Colton Person had the biggest turnaround from the first to second round, improving his score by a tournament high 11 strokes to finish with a 167 (89-78).
Henderson State went on to win the tournament, five strokes ahead of Lindwood (Mo.), while Lindwoods’ Yente Van Doren won the individual title.
Tuesday’s round closes a successful fall tournament schedule for the Ranger men that included a tournament title in the Ranger Invite at Meadowlake Golf Course in Enid, Oklahoma.
