The Norsemen traveled to Columbia City Monday to compete in the Sectional Tournament. Northfield was grouped by hole averages with host Warsaw, along with Culver Military Academy, and Huntington North. The Norse fell short of the top 3 teams to advance with Warsaw taking first with a 311, Plymouth 324, and Huntington North taking the final spot with 333. Northfield would shoot 338 as a team. Easton Shaw led the Norse and the entire field with a 75(+3), later sealing the #1 spot in a playoff with Warsaw. Shaw left no chance of a second playoff hole to come into play, as he would eagle the Par 5 18th. After sticking his second shot just inside 2ft, Shaw was able to get the job done with a tap in. Tyson Baer finished 3rd overall medalist with 76 to also advance. Tristan Hoffman finished with a 92, Gavin Brainard came in at 95, and Ryder Schram rounded it out with a 97. Shaw and Baer took the top 2 individual scores as Manchester's Connor Trump snagged the 3rd individual spot to have an all Wabash County representation for Regional. Regionals will be held Thursday June 6, at Stonehenge Golf Course in Warsaw. Shaw and Baer will tee off 8:00 am and 8:20 starting on hole 1.
