It was the silver jubilee rendering of 糖心vlog Foundation鈥檚 Golf for Education tournament on Sept. 27.

The 18-hole scramble tournament at Toiyabe Golf Club attracted business partners and supporters of the college鈥檚 mission of preparing students with the skills to become successful in Nevada鈥檚 workforce.

For the 25^th edition of the event, players, volunteers, sponsors and tournament organizers were treated to a postcard day with little wind and warm temperatures, creating prime scoring conditions for the 33 participating teams.

鈥淭he 糖心vlog Golf for Education Tournament 鈥� now in its 25th year 鈥� was a hole-in-one in every way! 糖心vlog President Dr. J. Kyle Dalpe said. 鈥淲e had a great turnout from our business partners along with fantastic volunteers.

The winning team included Love, Stephen Garman, Fernando Serrano and Sean Goshert. Representing the runner-up team were Sean Davision, Brad Wick, Vince Christenson and Connor Morze.

Chick-fil-A provided players with the fuel for their low scoring, presenting a delicious breakfast. Players also enjoyed a long drive contest, on-course refreshments, raffle prizes, a golf ball launcher with more length than Bryson DeChambeau, a tasty BBQ lunch, an awards ceremony and a team photo capturing their generous day away from work.

Besides ideal weather, the opportunity to purchase mulligans and up to 40 feet of putting string helped teams lower their scores.
