Shenandoah
Red Oak boys competed in the Mustang Invitational in Shenandoah on Tuesday, April 12. The two-division tournament included 15 teams from the area. Due to the weather, the tournament was shortened to a 9-hole event.
“With the temperatures ranging from 50 degrees to near 90 degrees and the winds 25 mph plus, conditions were very difficult for all players from the tee through the greens,” Red Oak head boys golf coach Bob Boeye said.
Red Oak finished seventh in the large school division, while Southwest Valley, East Mills, and Essex-Stanton finished fifth, sixth, and seventh, respectively, in the small school division.
Team scoring: Large school: 1- Maryville 165; 2- Atlantic 170; 3- Glenwood 173; 4- Harlan 180; 5- Clarinda 189; 6- Denison 200; 7- Red Oak 221; 8- Shenandoah 228. Small school: 1- Sidney 172; 2- Bedford 179; 3- Fremont-Mills 186; 4- Nodaway Valley 188; 5- Southwest Valley 209; 6- East Mills 219; Essex-Stanton 230.

Lewis Central
The Red Oak boys traveled to Lewis Central for another tournament on Thursday, April 14, this time playing the entire 18 holes. Red Oak finished with a team score of 441, placing ninth of 10 teams.
“We were missing Tyler Beeson due to illness,” Boeye said. “The Tigers survived the weather, but were plagued by their old nemesis of bad putting, penalties, and too many big scores on too many holes. Hopefully, the weather will improve and a few upcoming practices will help to get back on track.”
