With freshman Brian Dankle shooting the fourth-lowest score of the meet, the Burlington High School boys golf team finished third at the Southern Lakes Conference Golf Major No. 1 Tuesday.
Played at the par-72 Ives Grove Golf Course, Dankle carded a 40-43.
Dankle had nothing worse than a double bogey on any hole, and had three birdies.
Going into the meet, head coach Bill Berkholtz believed his team to finish in the top half of the conference, and his team proved him right.
