The cold combined with the wind caused scores to skyrocket with only eight of 74 Class B players breaking 100. The second day proved much nicer with sun, little wind, and temperatures in the mid-50s. Coffey finished with a two-day total of 217, which allowed her to finish 60th out of the 74 players on the tournament field, according to coach Tim Brown.

Volunteers who worked at the drive and those who brought food included Trinity Lutheran Church, St. Mary's Episcopal Church, the Washington County Republican Women and the Riverview Grange.
