Local teams struggle at 5A state golf tournament Phillip Morgan The good news about being in the first groups on the second sec-ond day of the 5A state golf tournament is you get to go home early. The bad news Ls that you generally don't have a shot at the title. Such was the case for the local teams at Thanksgiving Point on Thursday morning. As Spanish Fork's Garrett Moss was tapping in his final putt, eventual champion Jeff Jones of Weber, along with other Day 1 leaders Jordan Hezog of Fremont and Bingham's Bing-ham's Adam Anderson, were just finishing up on the 13th the top finisher from Region 4, finished with his second 74, good for 148 for the tournament and a tie for seventh place.. "Garrett played really well" said Spanish Fork head coach John Bingham. "I think he was still disappointed with the way he played, but he has always come through for as with a good round" The Doas were the top local team as well, finishing with a total of 645, narrowly edging Pleasant Grove which came on strong on Day 2 to tie for ninth place with 64. "Pleasant Grove hasn't played on the second day for awhile," said Viking coach John Kurtz. "Each of our players improved their scores from yesterday, so I'm pleased with the way we played today." The Vikings knocked an average of seven shots off of their first-round scores. The most dramatic turnaround came from Brady Conners, who shot an 88, a 2shot difference dif-ference from his first -round 113. "That's great," Kurtz said "You hate for a kid to come out and shoot that bad, but to improve his score by that much Ls almost victory by itself." What both teams missed was a great finish that came down to Jones having to two-putt two-putt on the ISth green to win as his ball rested 50 feel from the cup.

"1 knew it was close coming down the stretch, but I didn't know that I needed that par putt for the win," Jones said. "When it went in I was just so relieved that it was over. It was a big weight off of my shoulders." In the team competition, the Skyline Eagles came from two shots back to overtake Fremont and win by five strokes. The title was the Eagles' Ea-gles' first state champioaship in golf since 1992. "We felt like we had a great opportunity to win this thing," said Skyline coach Paul Jeppe-sen. Jeppe-sen. "We told the guys that if we can avoid big numbers we've got a shot to win. We were able to do that and it all worked out." Dayi Golf often comes down to the player competing agaiast the course. Each hole Ls a new battle between the person per-son with the clubs and the forces of nature blocking the way. 26 high school golfers from Region 4 boldly challenged the Thanksgiving Point golf course Wednesday in the first day of the 5A state tournament. tour-nament. And, by and large, the course won. AH four of the teams from Utah VaDey played poorly but Spanish Fork and Pleasant Pleas-ant Grove were barely able to make the cut. "We stunk it up," said Spanish Fork head coach John Bingham. This was the first time at state for most of our guys and I think we had some first big tourney jitters. Two or three of our guys were pretty nervous, so I think lack of experience hurt us." The Doas came in as the Region 4 champioas but couldn't get things rolling, failing to come close to last year's fifth place result. That team, however, had the advantage of being mostly seniors. The top players for the region was Don Garret Moss and Timpanogos's Jeff Holmes, Hol-mes, who both ended the day in a tie for ninth place with a 74, five strokes back of the leader.
