Sophomore Jack White (Lincoln) led the Lynx
with an 81.
"Jack hit the ball really well off the tee all day and threw in
3 birdies. He struggled around the greens, but he works hard at
it so we will get there," said Coach Nick Adcock.
Freshman Adam Hoffman from Porta High School shot an 87 in his
first college tournament. Coach Adcock was positive about
Hoffman’s debut. "He had some rough breaks all day, including
getting his ball getting stuck in a tree," he said.
Sophomore Caleb Przykopanski (Mt. Pulaski) finished with a 92.
Freshman Isaac Lewis (Lincoln) shot a 99 and fellow freshman
Christian Bennett (Lincoln) rounded out the group with a 121.
Despite the poor finish in the team’s first outing of the
season, Coach Adcock sees a lot of promise in this group of
players. He commented that, "The team is very young and haven't
been golfing a long time, so we need some work for sure. These
guys all work hard and want to improve. We will continue to
strive to get to where we want to be."
The Lynx next tournament will be on September 25th at The
Champaign Country Club.
