DICKINSON (NewsDakota.com)–Both Valley City and Jamestown golfers fought through gale-force wind during the state “A” golf tournament at Heart River Golf Course in Dickinson.
At the end of the day, all three Hi-Liners have a shot at a top-10 finish.
Nick Jenson shrugged off a rough start with a 38 on the back for an 82, the low round for Valley City’s three qualifiers.
Jenson’s 44 on the front threatened to put him out of contention, but a string of pars brought his tournament back.
“I’m not playing one more hole in this stuff today,” said Jenson after his round.
Jared Lentz fired a 40 on the back to start his day, then managed the conditions as best he could for an 84.
Ben Sorenson was strong and steady, shooting a 42 on the front, a score that was competitive in the sustained 30-miles-per-hour conditions. He backed it up with a 41 for an 83 headed to Wednesday.
Jamestown’s Austin Rene shot a 44 on the front and 45 on the back for an 89.
Jakobi Lux of Jamestown finished the day with a 95, rallying a bit after a 52 on the back to start.
