In a day marked by blustery winds and challenging playing conditions at Evergreen GC, the Union Grove High School boys golf team secured a fourth-place finish with a score of 337 at the SLC Major #2 on April 15, 2025.

The event tested all players with very windy conditions and temperatures in the low 50s. Cody Nelson stood out by shooting an 81, featuring three birdies despite fluctuating performance between the nines. Another highlight performance came from Jack Ryan, who managed a 39 on the back nine to finish with a career-best 84. Cody Borchardt also contributed commendably with a score of 85. Their coach commented, 'Conditions were tough today with the wind, making the course very challenging. Cody Nelson got off to a hot start, shooting a 37 on the front, but ran into trouble on the back nine. Jack Ryan was the opposite, getting a double-bogey on his first two holes, but caught fire on the back nine with 2-birdies. I was happy to see him play so well in what was pretty tough conditions. I was also very pleased with Cody Borchardt. He has been our most steady player this year, and he played very well today. Overall it was a good day, but we had too many triple and double bogeys that impacted our scores.'

The key moment of the competition was Jack Ryan overcoming a slow start to notch a career best score, reflecting the resilience of the team in adverse conditions. The Broncos look forward to their next challenge at the Falcon Invite Scramble on April 21, 2025, at Strawberry Creek Country Club.
