The team combine score was 25 strokes better than that of the second place team in the meet, which was Topeka Hayden who finished with a score of 323.

Holton enjoyed the great overall team performance in light of the fact they had multiple top individual performances, as they took home the top six spots in individual scores. Kellen Brandt won himself another individual meet title shooting a 73 on the day to notch first place. Tavin Dugan, took home second place in yet again another meet for the Wildcats also, as he shot a 74. Third place went to Kenton Tegethoff on the day with a 75.
