Freshman Bode Salas shot a season low 68 to lead the Carbon Dinos to another Region 12 victory Thursday afternoon at the Carbon Country Club Golf Course in Price.
Competing on their home course for the only time this season, Carbon finished with a final team score of 304. Richfield finished in a distant second with a formidable 329, topping Grand’s 342. Emery finished fourth with a 360, while South Sevier and San Juan completed the field of six.
Senior Kaden Slavensky complimented Salas perfectly, finishing with a 71, the second low score of the afternoon. Fellow senior Nick Olson shot a 77, while freshman Daron Garner recorded Carbon’s fourth score with an 88.
With only one region meet remaining on the 2019 schedule the Dinos have extended their overall lead to 76 strokes. Grand remains ten strokes better than third place Richfield, while only seven strokes separate Emery and South Sevier for fourth place.
The team’s will meet one last time next Wednesday with a trip to Roosevelt, the site of this year’s state championship, for the region finale. Wednesday will mark the second time the teams have competed in Roosevelt. Carbon won the first tournament at that course with a team score of 317 in July.
