Gothenburg coach Don Graham said the Swedes continue to battle the mental aspects of the game, allowing one or two bad holes to affect the final outcome.

Lexington and Cozad tied for first with identical 432 team scores.

Lexington captured a repeat title on a one-hole playoff 22-27 to take the county title.

Gothenburg finished with 474 in the best five-of-eight scoring.

Shad Wellman of Lexington was the meet medalist shooting a 78 on the day.

Gothenburg junior Jeramie VanAcker came in a close second at 80 with Eric Zimbleman of Cozad third carding 82.
