PGA Director of Instruction, Jim Empey, from the nearby Valley Club, and Matt Gibbens, PGA Head Professional at Olive Glenn Golf & Country Club in Cody, Wyoming, tied for second with matching two-round totals of 3-over-par 147. Alone in fourth place was Lance Rieber, PGA Teaching Professional from Warm Springs Golf Course in Boise, Idaho, three shots further back.
