Benders title goes to Benkelman duo

Benkelman’s Zach Loker and Blaine Rosenfelt won the third annual Benders Tournament Sunday.
The first 18 holes of the tournament were played at Enders Lake Golf Course Saturday and the second 18 holes wrapped up the tournament Sunday in Benkelman.
Twenty-seven two-man teams took part in the tournament sponsored by Aaron Kaiser and Channel Seed.
Loker and Rosenfelt took home the win after a two-hole playoff.
Kari Amen with Enders Lake Golf Course said it is a lot of fun for all players to get to play two courses.
“We hope the field will continue to keep growing,” she added.
