Collin Whittington was next for Caldwell with a 90.

The Paducah course provided a difficult round of golf on Monday. Windy conditions and a tough course setup, combined with ongoing construction on the front nine — the course was in the process of installing new cart paths — made it an over 5-hour grind for most golfers.
Host Paducah St. Mary swept top honors, with Rocco Zakutney claiming medalist with an even-par round of 72. The Vikings took the team title with a 314 — nine shots better than the nearest competitors.
McCracken County was runner-up after both the Mustangs and Trigg carded team scores of 323. McCracken edged the Wildcats by one shot from each team’s No. 5 player.
Marshall County teammates Trey Wall and Camdyn McLeod each turned in rounds of 76.
