The Spensky-Dakan duo holed out for an eagle on the par-4 first hole, while Price and Patterson rolled in their fair share of birdies however, the Nighthawk duo ascended above the rest in this tough 36-hole event. When key-saving par putts fell and nicely tucked approach shots landed within a few feet of the hole, the duo proved early on that they would be the toughest foe for any and all groups playing in the event-just ask any person who competed against the newly-appointed Great Northwest Athletic Conference Player of the Year (McCord).įellow playing partners Robb Price and current University of Cincinnati player Brooke Patterson, as well as Burke Spensky and Shawnie Dakan, did not make it easy for the eventual victors. With a field-leading nine birdies, Sisk and McCord relied on each other’s strengths throughout the duration of the event. Having both length and precision off the tee, these two college players had an advantage that most of us only dream of when hitting the links-playing from parts of the golf course that are infrequently touched. After two solid rounds, this power duo from Northwest Nazarene University in Nampa, Idaho, claimed an impressive two-shot victory, considering the field strength they had to overcome. Sisk and McCord more than managed the surge of high-quality players who had been breathing down their necks since opening tee shots were struck Saturday morning. With the field being nearly double the size in comparison to 2022’s snow out, players from around the IGA grabbed their playing companions in droves to compete in this unique but challenging Chapman format-a team event where two players hit a drive, switch, and play their partner’s tee shot and then play the best ball into the hole from there-as a great warm-up for what will be a fun season of competitive golf for IGA members. And last but not least, the winner’s circle for the Valhalla Flight was claimed by two teams at 23-over par (165): Zackary & Nicole Hall and John & Kelly Ianson. The Oak Hill Flight was taken by couple Wade Dishion and Kimberly Darnall who carded a final score of 6-over par (148). The duo of Colton Sisk and Gabrielle (Elle) McCord carded the low score of the tournament amongst the three divisions of golfers-shooting 67-68=135 (-7) to with the Southern Hills Flight. ![]() Written by Beaux Yenchik, Manager of Media and CommunicationsīOISE, Idaho-A pair of Nighthawks stole the show at the opening event of the Idaho Golf Association’s 2023 tournament season Sunday afternoon at Boise Ranch Golf Course. ![]()
