CRETE – The Northeast Community College golf team wrapped up the two-day Doane College Spring Invitational here on Saturday, finishing sixth and tenth.

Friday’s portion of the tournament was played at Wilderness Ridge Golf Course in Lincoln. Coach Kurt Pytleski said windy conditions made the already-challenging golf course even more difficult for the Hawks. Conditions improved on Saturday, which was held at College Heights Golf Course in Crete.

Southeast Community College took first place with a two-day total of 580 (+8). Dakota Wesleyan University (SD) finished second with a 609 (+37), and Morningside College was one stroke back for third.

Kean Kontor and Kyle Murray, both of Southeast, tied for medalist honors with 145 (+2) each.

For Northeast’s first team, Brook Klinetobe tied for ninth with a two-day total of 151 (+8). Tyler Lewis fired a 161 (+18); Cameron Bancroft, 162 (+19); Jamy McCoy, 164 (+21); and Brooks Coleman, 174 (+31).
