    The SWAL golfers didn’t let the unseasonable cool temperature get to them as five players posted sub-40 scores paced by Cuba City’s Alex Stewart, who fired a one-over 37 to lead the league-leading Cubans to a first-place finish with a score of 158.
    Southwestern was second at 169, followed by Mineral Point at 175 and the Redbirds with a 178.
    Senior Zach McArthur led the ‘Birds with a 43, while Alex Schulte and A.J. Brandt each carded a 44 on the day. Chase Tuescher rounded out the team scoring with a 47.
    At Mineral Point, on Thursday, April 26, the Redbirds turned in their best performance of the young season by carding a team score of 163 to finish second at the Dodge-Point SWAL Golf Meet.
    Zach McArthur shot a one-over 37 to lead the Redbirds, while A.J. Brandt followed with a three-over 39. Alex Schulte scored a 43 and Chase Tuescher followed with a 44 for the ‘Birds.
    Cuba City ran away with the team title with a score of 150.
