The venue of the Hickory Fun Center holds tournaments every Thursday from April until September but had never seen a score this low in the course’s 50 years of operation.
When asked, the two said they have hit a score of 19 multiple times this year as well but not in a tournament setting.
The team said they play for fun but will continue to shoot for an illustrious round of 18.
