Camden Nierman poses with the overall champion trophy from TPC Deere Run

The Golf CoE headed down to a Plantations Junior Golf Tour this past weekend being held at the TPC Deere Run which annually hosts a PGA Tour stop.  Camden Nierman who is completing his post graduate year at SSM took the individual title of overall champion with rounds of 76 – 73.  This is Nierman’s first victory of the season and he becomes the 4^th different individual for the Sabres to win an event at the national level this school year.  He saved his best play for the final 9 holes in which he shot a 35 (1 under par) with a birdie on 17 and a par on the toughest hole on the course, the infamous number 18.  Nierman has played solid all year with 4 top 10 finishes but this is a feather in his cap to capture the victory.  Coach Higdon had the following comments: “We have made some significant changes with Camden’s and his game has been kind of up and down at times.  But as you can see over his past two tournaments he really has things firing on all cylinders.  His prior competitive round for the Sabres was a 69 (-3) and he carried the great play over to this tournament.  I believe he is striking the ball the best he ever has and when we were talking on the range before the tournament he told me he was going to win this thing.  He backed it up and that is exactly what he did!!”  Sam Eisenhuth (2014) also saved his best for the last day by shooting an even par 71 on the final day vaulting him into a 5^th place tie in the 50 player field.  His 71 was the second best round of all the players in the tournament.

From the girls’ side, Sophie Hill (2015) had her best finish of the year with a 2^nd place tie.  She shot a final round 84 to follow up her opening round of 87.  Sophie has consistently gotten better as the year has progressed and it is only a matter of time before she gets her first victory.  Coach Higdon had the following to say about Hill’s performance.  “As her scores prove, Sophie has been working really hard on her mechanics and it is paying off with her best two tournaments of the season coming most recently.  Sophie has been working hard during our practice sessions but also putting the time and dedication in her strength and conditioning.  Her final round of 84 could have easily been a lot lower.  She is playing really well now and that is going to carry right over into her summer season.” Sydney Brickey (2013) hit the ball solid all weekend but just couldn’t get anything going on the greens.  She shot rounds of 88 – 86 to finish in a 4^th place tie.

These golfers don’t get much time to rest as they are heading to a FCWT event at Whistling Straits on May 4^th and 5^th.  The weather forecast is for cold and rain so it will be a true test of mental and physical toughness.
