The NSAA girls golf state championships begin today. The Class C tournament is taking place at Lake Maloney Golf Club outside North Platte. Broken Bow will be looking for its fourth straight Class C girls golf team championship. It is an accomplishment that has never been achieved by a Class C school. The state tournament is a 36 hole event with round one today and round two tomorrow. Broken Bow claimed their 4th straight Southwest Conference championship and 4th straight district championship earlier this season. Finishing as runner up in both meets was Minden. The Whippets finished just two shots behind Broken Bow in the district tournament. The two teams have battled during the season and will be considered as two of the favorites at the state meet.
Skylar Benjamin will be the first to tee off for Broken Bow today. Benjamin will start her round on the front nine with an anticipated tee time of 9:40 a.m. Brynn Custer will start her round on the back nine today with the group scheduled to tee off at 9:50. Taylor Schaaf will start her round on the front nine with a scheduled tee time of 10:40. Molly Custer will tee off with the 11 a.m. group and Camryn Johnson will play in the final group which is scheduled to tee off at 11:20 today.
