Heimes leads Hawks at Central Raider Classic

COLUMBUS, Neb. – Ty Heimes (Battle Creek, Neb.) placed second for the Northeast Community College golf team on Wednesday, propelling the Hawks to a first-place finish at the Central Raider Classic in Columbus, Neb.

Heimes helped the Hawks beat Southeast Community College in a playoff to secure first-place. He shot a 70, while Rockney Peck (Wisner, Neb.) came in seventh place. Kellen Rossman (Norfolk, Neb.) and Jordan Hart (Omaha, Neb.) each recorded a 76. Kody Sander (Lincoln, Neb.) shot a 77.

Competing individually, Riley Keuhn (Hartington, Neb.) carded a 77, while Brady Esch (McCook, Neb.) hit a 79. Santiago Valdes (Merida, Mexico) followed with an 80.

"This was a really big win for us," head coach Wes Bernt said. "Ty has been a great leader for us and it was good to see him play well. Rockney has been practicing a lot, so it's good to see the hard work pay off in his first top-10 finish."

The Hawks hit the greens at the Central Community College Triangular on Sept. 24 at 11 a.m. at the Elks Country Club in Columbus.
