United South Central freshman Kadyn Neubauer took part in the second round of the Section 1A golf meet along with his Rebel teammates Monday morning at North Links Golf Course in Mankato.

When the dust settled at the end of the second day, Neubauer finished as one of five individuals to punch their ticket to the Class A state meet taking place next week.

After a first round 85 (+13), Neubauer found himself on the edge of the cutline of golfers who would qualify. Neubauer kept his composure in the second round, carding a 37 (+1) on the front nine and finishing his round with a 78 (+6). His two-round total of 163 (+19) was good enough for an eighth-place finish and was 11 strokes ahead of the mark to push him on to state.
