C-M’s Underwood falls short of state tournament

ENGLISH VALLEYS — Colfax-Mingo’s Delaney Underwood was the only freshman in the top 12 positions at the Class 1A Region 3 tournament on Monday.

However, an 11th-place finish ended Underwood’s season.

Underwood shot a 98 at the Knoll Ridge Country Club. New London won the team title and had the top three individual finishers. Casey Noble earned medalist honors with a 77.

“Delaney played amazing but unfortunately had three unfavorable holes,” C-M golf coach Nick Noring said. “This was a great experience for her, and it left a bitter but exciting taste in her mouth to move forward next year.”

The fifth and final state qualifying position was Sigourney’s Stacy Mohr, who shot an 87.

New London won with a 326. The other state qualifying team was Iowa Valley, which shot a 391.
