There were a few tense moments for Aurora senior Riley Darbro after her round of 98 in the B-3 district meet Tuesday at Jackrabbit Run in Grand Island, but ended with a big smile. 

Darbro fired a 52-46 for a 98, good enough for 9th place and a spot in next week's Class B state golf meet at Gering. The score of 98 tied for the last individual position to qualify for state. York's Riley Stuhr won the event with an 86. 

The teams of York, GINW and Seward each earned trips to next week's state meet with scores of 380, 381 and 389. Aurora finished fifth as a team with a 408.

The Class B state golf meet from Gering is set to take place Monday and Tuesday.
