HHS fifth at state golf as Niebrugge takes 2nd; Bay's Schultz earns 4th
Behind freshman Jordan Niebrugge's tie for second in the individual standings, the Homestead boys golf team moved up to fifth in the final standings of the WIAA State Golf Tournament contested at University Ridge in Madison on Tuesday.
Niebrugge carded a second round 71 to finish with a 36-hole total of 143 as he tied for second with Madison Memorial's Tim McCormick. Wausau East's Anthony Archer carded a second round 68 and claimed medalist honors with a 139 score.
2007 state champion Jack Schultz of Whitefish Bay got back onto the medal stand as he posted a second round 72 to finish at 144, good for a tie for fourth. Injuries caused him to slip to 10th last season.
Nicolet's Aaron Sandock earned himself a tie for 10th as his second round 74 helped him turn in a 149 final mark.
Behind Niebrugge, Homestead posted a 36-hole team total of 618. The Highlanders second day 307 score was four shots better than what they carded in Monday's first round. Arrowhead successfully defended its team title turning in a 596 score, 11 shots better than the Warhawks Classic 8 Conference opponent Kettle Moraine (607).
Helping out Niebrugge for the Highlanders were Casey Barnes with a 151 (73-78), Stephen Sullivan 160 (81-79), Joe Borawski 167 (85-82) and Dylan Drozdowicz, who bounced back from a horrendous 92 the first day, to card a second round 79 (171 total).
