Ethan Koechner shot a 7-over-par 42 and the Tipton Cardinals carded a 175 to win a season-opening golf meet with Lincoln, Cole Camp and Sacred Heart on Monday at the Sedalia Country Club.
Despite two-putting most holes, Koechner’s 42 was two strokes better than teammates Braden Boehlen and Daniel Buschjost and Cole Camp’s David Martin who finished in a three-way tie for second.
