RedTail Men's and Women's Golf made the trip to Fort Dodge on April 10–11 for Iowa Central's Spring Invite, battling cold, windy conditions across both rounds while showing meaningful progress on each side of the program.

Men's Team Recap

The men turned in one of their strongest team performances of the year, highlighted by a standout second round from Danny Wiese, who fired a 74 and closed with a difficult up‑and‑down on the ninth to finish the day. Consistent scoring across the lineup helped the RedTails post a competitive two‑day total despite the challenging weather.

Men's Highlights

  • Danny Wiese: 77–74, including a strong finish on hole 9 in Round 2.

  • Preston Martens: 78–76, steady across both days.

  • Graham Bremner: 75–78, providing reliable scoring.

  • Matty Bain: 77–79, contributing to one of the team's best totals this spring.

  • Carson Nash: 82–85, rounding out the lineup in tough conditions.

Coach Micah Destival commented on the men's performance, saying, "The men played pretty well in the elements this weekend and had one of our top scores of the year. Danny Weiss had a very nice 2nd round 74 where he closed with a very tough up and down on hole 9."

Women's Team Recap

The women showed significant improvement from Round 1 to Round 2, cutting 14 strokes off their team score even as conditions worsened. Multiple players posted steadier back‑nine totals, and the group continues trending upward as the spring season builds momentum.

Women's Highlights

  • Makenna Brissey: 102–90, a 12‑stroke improvement to lead the team on Day 2.

  • Eve Brumbaugh: 99–95, improving by four strokes.

  • Natalie Sinnwell: 96–97, consistent across both rounds.

  • Delaney Legg: 97–98, steady in both rounds.

  • Jillian Reisetter: 119–110, improving by nine strokes.

 

Coach Destival finished out talking about the women's team, saying, "Our women continue to improve and knocked 14 strokes off in the second round in much worse conditions. Excited to play at home twice this week and see what we can do."

Looking Ahead

Both teams return home this week for back‑to‑back events, carrying confidence from their progress in Fort Dodge and aiming to build on the foundation they've set this spring. The RedTail Women's Invite is April 13, 2026, and both teams come back together this weekend, April 17-18, 2026, for the Waterloo Intercollegiate. Go support your RedTails!
