Tahlequah boys golf's No. 1 Kaden Tibbetts played his way to All-Conference honors at one of the toughest courses in Oklahoma.

'Kaden was even through 13 holes and had a couple of bad breaks,' THS coach Nick Baker said.
Tibbetts trailed four players from Claremore in the MLC rankings. Out of CHS' top four golfers, no one shot over a 74.
Tibbetts led the Tigers to a third-place finish with a total score of 340. Tahlequah only trailed Claremore (286) and Collinsville (339).
'[Our guys] didn't have their best stuff but had some bright spots during the round,' Baker said. 'They aren't happy with third place and are determined to get things corrected for Regionals on April 30.'
Before that, the Tigers are set for a 9 a.m. tee time at Bailey Ranch for the Skiatook Invitational.
