The San Benito boys golf team took a small step back from last week’s performance at the first Tri-County Athletic League Tournament — five strokes, to be exact — but still managed to garner second place on Monday at the second league meet at the Salinas Golf and Country Club.
The Balers shot a 217 behind matching 40s from Will Cross and Nathan Winn, but Palma earned the top spot for the second straight week when it carded a team score of 195.
Chieftain Sergio Rios medaled the round by recording a par 36.
Meanwhile, Jacob DeLeon finished his round with a 44 for the Balers, while Jade Kimura and Dalton Destefanis rounded out the team with a 46 and 47, respectively.
Third place went to Everett Alvarez, which finished nine strokes behind San Benito with a 226. Gilroy (235), Salinas (237), Alisal (287) and North Salinas (312) took spots fourth through seventh, respectively.
