The Central Community College golf team went to Hastings, NE to play in the Nebraska Intercollegiate at Lochland Country Club on Friday and Saturday this past week.

The tournament conditions were phenomenal and Lochland CC was in great shape to host our Fall season finale.

Day 1 saw the Raiders struggle a bit, with the Raiders #1 Spencer Knispel shot a 77, Jude Elgert, Colby Sorensen, and Creek Kennedy with 83s, and Jack Edwards followed up the rear with a score of 87.

Going into Day 2 Creek Kennedy decided he wasn't able to continue due to a back issue, so he withdrew himself. The Raiders were able to get Jake Wright to play in his place for day 2.

Day 2 saw much harder conditions with the wind blowing upwards of 25-30 MPH. Jude Elgert showed heart and fired a solid 77 in the wind with an eagle in his second to last hole. Spencer Knispel shot an 82, Colby and Jack Ewards both with 84s. Jake Wright, the replacement for Creek after his WD, shot a 89.

"This was a very busy week for my golfers." CCC head coach Sam Elgert said, "I thought we showed great drive to compete with the stacked field, even though we were outgunned. We have a lot of improvements to do going forward and we will address those this winter. I am excited for the future."
