Last week was a busy one for the South Loup boys’ golf team. They traveled to Thedford on Monday, then were at home on Thursday, May 1, for the MNAC tournament, and finished out the week on Friday, May 2 at Overton.

After shooting an 87 to finish in 6th place at the Sandhills-Thedford tournament, Harper Johnson was able to better his score by two strokes at the conference meet. His 85 earned him the 4th place medal.

Meanwhile, Bo Brennan drastically improved his score from Monday to Thursday. After finishing with 107 at Thedford, Brennan had a good day on the course at Arnold to card a 95 and earn the 7th place conference medal.

No other results from the MNAC meet were available.
