BURLINGTON, Iowa – Richard Sykes has coached long enough to know days like this don’t come along often. In fact, it was a record day for N.C. State, as the Wolfpack blitzed Spirit Hollow Golf Course in 19 under at the Golfweek Conference Challenge. They lead Charleston Southern by 12 strokes and are 29 in front of 2015 NCAA champs LSU.
Sykes, now in his 45th year as head coach, also knows that with two rounds left, no lead is safe.
“The forecast don’t call for no rain-outs,” Sykes said of the picture-perfect weather here in Iowa.
