PUEBLO, Colorado – The first tournament of the 2020 season turned out to be a record-breaking performance for the Hutchinson Community College men's golf team.

Paced by a career-low round by freshman Trey McCrae on Tuesday, the Blue Dragons closed the tournament with a team score of 9-under-par 279, a team record for a Par-72 course.
