Dillon Wise shows great form in his follow through off the tee box at Grant. In four tournaments he has been in the top ten medal group all four times.
The golfers of Western Nebraska have to battle cold and windy conditions constantly each fall, but their fans have to do the same. It is especially tough on the older fans like grandpa Mike Greenwood, pictured here. A heavy coat wasn't enough so he wrapped up in a blanket to ward off the cold at the Perkins County invite. The cold weather didn't slow down the red-hot Kimball team as they won the tournament by 20 strokes, shooting a season best team score of 319.
