The Ravens came away with the Southeast Iowa Superconference dual win 226-259. Hillcrest was led by meet medalist Luke Schrock with his low round of 46. He spoke after the meet about his day. “It feels pretty good to be medalist. I was a little nervous at the beginning but that wore off and then it was just like practice. My putting was the best it has been all year tonight. I birdied nine, took four iron off the tee instead of driver, ended up about 137 yards out, put it close and made the putt. It’s always great to end on a birdie. Getting the team win today feels great and is a good start to the season.”
