Gothenburg, NE -- Indian Hills overcame a five-stroke deficit midway through the NJCAA District 3 Championship and edged Iowa Western by one shot for the district title.
Justin Weber's tap-in birdie on the final hole allowed Indian Hills to win the district meet with a 582 total. The Warriors posted a team score of 288 over the second 18 holes on Tuesday as the tourney was reduced to 36 holes. Action was postponed because of high winds on Monday and the format was switched from a 54-hole, two-day event to 36 holes in a single day.
Dan Dawson played a big role in the IHCC title. Dawson fired a three-under par 69 in the second round and tied for 3rd overall with an even-par total of 144.
Cameron Munro was 5th with rounds of 73 and 72.
Indian Hills had five golfers in the top nine, including Matt Solis who was playing as an individual and finished in a tie for 6th with teammate Zach Monson.
Weber, who nailed down the win, wound up tied for 8th place and his final-hole birdie gave him an even-par 72 for Tuesday's second round.
Indian Hills and Iowa Western were the two Iowa schools in the event. Dodge City led the seven other schools, all from Kansas. Dodge City was 3rd, 15 shots back of the winning Warriors.
