Judisch saved his best round of the season for the opening round, three under par 33-35 68 at the Cottonwood golf course.
That round put Judisch one stroke ahead of two-time defending champion Gordon Webb of Malta. The Mustang senior came home with a 33-36 69 over the par 71 course setting the stage for a super match for top medalist honors on Wednesday.
Other scores from the Cowboy squad saw Nate Gage fashion a round of 42-44 86 and Rhett Orcutt match that with a consistent tour of the course, 43-43 86.
Brad Brenteson shot a 99 and Kyle Ellis came home with a 101.
Team scores and places after the first day looked like this: Malta 309, Shepherd 316, Thompson Falls 325, Fairfield 328, Shelby 331, Loyola 332, Manhattan 336, Deer Lodge 336, Conrad 339, Colstrip 361, Columbus 364, Huntley 362.
On the girls’ side, team scoring and places after the first day went like this: Townsend 372, Three Forks 376, Loyola 397, Conrad 414, Columbus 433, Deer Lodge 434, Roundup 436, Fort Benton 440, Forsyth 445, Cut Bank 446, Malta 475, Broadus 489.
Leading the way for the Cowgirls was Andrea Spicher with a round of 49-50 99.
Kenley King shot a round of 47-56 103, Kylee Schlepp was one shot back at 104 with nines of 53-51.
Cassie Peters put together a steady round of 54-54 108 and Jenny Silvernale shaved five strokes off her front nine score of 58, coming in with a 53 for a 111.
While the weather was nice on the first day, Wednesday was cold and rainy and less than ideal for playing, let alone decent scoring.
Nevertheless the less, Webb came on to play a steady round and came in with a one under par round of 70-139 to win his third straight Class B title. First day leader, Judisch, carded a 79-147 and was in second place for the tournament.
Overall the Cowboys placed ninth.
