Dalton Finishes Second at NWAC Champs

YAKIMA, WA | Olympic College Sophomore Nyah Dayton played her best rounds of the season at the NWAC Championships held at Apple Tree Golf Resort in Yakima, WA.  "She played well the entire tournament," shares Head Coach Bjorn Bjorke, "And had a 3-stroke with two holes to play."  An errant tee shot forced her to declare a lost ball and ended up taking a triple bogey on that hole, evaporating her lead in one hole. Jayda Thomas, Centralia College, and Nyah tied the 18th hole forcing a sudden play-off. 

Each parred the first play-off hole forcing them to play the 18th hole again.  Nyah hit an arrent approach shot into the par 5 and ended up with a bogey for the hole.  Jayda made par and secured the NWAC individual championship.  Nyah paid well enough to make the All-Tournament team and won the admiration of many fans. 

For her excellent season, Nyah was named 1st Team All-NWAC. Read more here.
