Fernley boys golfers tee off in State Tournament Tuesday

Fernley boys golfers tee off in State Tournament Tuesday

Robert Perea, The Fernley Reporter

A year ago, the Fernley High School boys golf team finished first in the Northern 3A in the shortened season due to Covid 19, but were denied a trip to the state meet because there was no postseason.

The year before, they didn’t even get to play.

It’s a long time coming, but finally, the Vaqueros are headed to State.

Fernley finished second in the regular season in the Northern 3A, behind Truckee, and will compete in the 3A State Championship meet Tuesday and Wednesday at Mountain Falls Golf Club in Pahrump.

The Vaqueros finished the regular season with 59 points in the standings, trailing Truckee by 10 points. Fernley averaged a team score of 361.6 for the season, 15.6 strokes higher per round than Truckee. In nine meets this season, the Vaqueros finished second five times and won one meet.

Individually the Vaqueros boasted two of the top four players in the league. Sophomores Jacob Holmes and Noah Davis ranked third and fourth, respectively, in the league. Holmes averaged 82.7 per round, while Davis averaged 85.9. Junior Kade Stanger barely missed ranking in the league’s top 10, finishing 11th with an average 89.5, only .1 behind the Truckee’s Luke Brown, who was 10th.

Freshman Luke Stanger had a 99.3 average, while junior Peter Knodell averaged 107.4 and junior Matt Young averaged 108. Junior Wesley Mull got into three meets and averaged 115.3.

For a large municipal facility like the indoor-outdoor Fernley Swimming Pool located at 300 Cottonwood Lane, a complete ground-up commercial build or major structural renovation typically spans 6 to 12 months or longer when factoring in large-scale engineering, public municipal permitting, specialized commercial HVAC/roofing, and health department inspections. The current renovation has been- The Fernley Swimming Pool has been closed for approximately six to seven months since late February 2026 for a major roof replacement and facility renovation. Now you sat October. Soooo 8 months for a new roof. The picture shows no other renovations.

It smells like sewage and it can be bad enough that people don’t want to be outside or open their windows. It would be helpful to get an investigative journalist help the Fernley residents get a clear answer from the City, NDEP, and any involved facilities. I was really disappointed that the smell was not disclosed by my realtor when I moved here. I enjoy Fernley and am seeing the improvements that are being made.
