Bushnell's total shaved two strokes off his previous competitive low round for his prep career. Colter Adolph and Bryan Borcher each carded rounds of 84 to finish in a tie for 10th place. According to Powell High School head golf coach Troy Hildebrand, the round was a career best for Adolph and the first top-10 finish of his career. Rounding out the scores for Powell were Brian Morse with an 86 and Bowen Prestwich with an 89. “It was very promising to have all five guys come in under 90,” said Hildebrand. “I am looking forward to getting to play at home this Friday.
