Moore has been the cornerstone of the team all season, providing steady leadership and consistent scoring.Cash Hamilton followed closely with solid rounds of 83 and 84, totaling 167.

Blake Wolston faced challenges with water hazards but maintained his composure, finishing the tournament at 202.Coach McKethan expressed pride in the entire group, saying the team showed competitiveness all year long.Congratulations to the Sunnyvale Raiders on another successful regional appearance!
