BEEMER — The Laurel-Concord/Coleridge golf season began at Indian Trails Country Club near Beemer, but in a sick twist of fate, their season ended there as well last week.
The District C-2 Golf Meet was held on May 14 and the LCC golfers struggled to keep the ball on the green.
“It was a tough day,” said LCC golf coach Scott Petersen. “We shot a 346 at Beemer for the first meet of the year and came back to shoot 375 for Districts.”

Top team honors went to Logan View at 330. Second and third overall went to Cedar and Wisner-Pilger. The top three teams advanced to the State Tournament at the Kearney Country Club. State Golf spanned two days of play, starting yesterday and finishing today.
The top 10 individuals automatically advanced to the State Tournament as well. Cedar’s Eric Kruse shot a 78 to tie for first place with Logan View’s Ryan Wacker.
LCC was unable to qualify any golfers to State. Cory Peterson placed the best for the Bears at 22nd with his round of 91.
Coach Petersen should have an exciting year in 2013. LCC’s top six golfers will return next spring, as none of them were seniors. Further, Plainview standout Mitch Klooz will be added to the rotation as his family moves to the LCC School District when his father becomes the new Superintendent.
