Making the first of two trips to Ulen Golf Course in Lebanon this week the Crawfordsville golf team placed second in a three-team meet against the host Tigers and Tri-West. Lebanon took first with a 171 while CHS shot a 191 just edging out the Bruins who shot a 192.

““We had a rough evening on the links today. After a great weekend win, we had a team letdown,” Crawfordsville coach Tom Perkins said. “The effort was there, but we just weren’t making our normal shots. “ There is plenty to work on before Quail Creek Thursday. We’ll be on the range tomorrow back at work. We’ll be back at Ulen Saturday for Lebanon’s Invite. Now we’ll know what to expect”
