Tyler Harrod and Paul Hartl shot 91 for Cascade.
WARDEN -The weather was quit the opposite of that in Leavenworth when Warden hosted Manson and Riverside Christian at the par 71 course at Sage Hills Wednesday as temperatures dipped into the 50s and the wind blew all day long.

Conrad Ruge carded 93, Jordan Manville had 100, and Saxon Swindler and Daniel Clarke turned in 104 to round out the scoring for the Cougars who finished with a team score of 359.
