The Perkins County Plainsmen Boys’ Golf Team will be heading back to state again this year after taking third in the D5 Golf Districts in Bridgeport on Monday. Zaybreon Hansen took first in the individual category with a score of 75. 

Other qualifying team members and their scores are Jet Peterson,121, Storm Peterson, 98, Eli Busick, 98, and Will Long, 98.

Head Coach Kelly Smith was very happy with how the team performed. 

“We had a good showing during the day,” he said. “It was great weather and the team had a lot of fun”

Smith commented, however, that the Bridgeport  course was new for two of the team members. 

“I wasn’t sure what to expect score wise,” he said. 

Heading into state next week Smith said his team’s attitude is good right and the boys are ready.
