Tuesday, the Creston boys golf team competed in Centerville where they finished sixth in the seven-team field.

“Great day for golf on a tough course, but we competed well,” Coach Steve Shantz said. “It is nice to play against different teams and different courses. We did have some tough luck.”

Though Marshall Long led the team with his season-best score of 89, he was disqualified for not turning in his scorecard.

“He also missed a hole in one by about a foot on a great shot,” Shantz added.

The boys return to action Monday at the Red Oak Country Club.
