Western’s Carolyn Lemon birdied two of her final seven holes Wednesday and held on to win the Class 3A Southern Region tournament at CasaBlanca Golf Club in Mesquite.

Lemon shot a 1-under-par 71 on Wednesday to finish with a 36-hole total of 7-over 151.

Pahrump Valley’s Breanne Nygaard finished second at 153 after carding a 72 in the second round.

Nygaard’s effort helped the Trojans to the team title with a two-round total of 729. Boulder City, the two-time defending region champion, finished three strokes behind.

Ryann Reese led the Eagles and finished third overall with a 36-hole total of 168.

The entire field — both teams and all seven individuals — qualified for the state tournament, which begins Monday in Truckee, California.
