n Parker breaks even: The defending Big Eight Conference champion Vikings saw their hopes of a repeat dual title fade on Thursday.

The Vikings, 4-2 in the Big Eight, were led by junior Molly Rozeboom’s 84. Junior Katie Brossard fired an 85 for Parker, and Amanda Becker added an 88.

“It’s fun to compete, but it’s tough to lose by one stroke,” Parker coach John Zimmerman said.

“We’ve got a week or so off, so we’re going to hit the range and work on a few things and do a few drills.”

La Follette’s McKenna Prestigiacomo fired a 6-over par 78 to claim medalist honors.
