The Churchill County High School boys golf team has wrapped up an impressive regular season, making waves across the league with top individual finishes, All-League selections, and a standout MVP. 

Senior Colin Shishido led the Greenwave charge, finishing first in the individual standings with a season average of 76.0. Consistency was key for Shishido, who shot in the 70s in nearly every match and racked up 94.5 total points, securing the league MVP title and a spot on the All-League First Team. 

Teammates Jacob Perez and Dierks Hammon also earned First Team honors with strong performances throughout the season. Perez averaged 77.8, with his best round coming at Lowry (85), while Hammon maintained a 78.0 average and contributed crucial scores at key tournaments, including an 83 at Lowry and a 76 at Elko. 

Kaleb Nielson rounded out Fallon’s First Team selections, finishing with a 78.4 average and posting a solid 78 at Fernley. 

Fallon’s lineup also featured strong play from Jack Marma and Troy Kepler, who both earned Second Team recognition. Marma averaged 80.5 and posted season-best rounds of 79 at Fernley and Dayton. Kepler matched the 80.5 average, with rounds as low as 75. 

Coach Elaine Adams’ strategy and the team’s hard work paid off across the board, with multiple players posting personal bests and the team consistently placing high in tournaments across the region—from South Tahoe to Spring Creek. 

The state tournament is underway in Elko as The Fallon Post goes to print. Results will be reported next week.

We reached out to the writer/submitter and got this info back...hope it's helpful. PBM: Pharmacy Benefit Managers are pharmacies that are owned by insurance companies. (CVS is one.) They negotiate with drug makers to get reduced pricing for medications, but they historically have not passed along those savings to patients. https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/pharmacy-benefit-managers-staff-report.pdf MFN: Most Favored Nation pricing is a policy that means a country agrees to offer the same trade concessions (like tariffs or price reductions) to all member nations of the World Trade Organization (WTO). When applied to pharmaceuticals, it could disrupt global access, deter innovation, and obscure the deeper systemic issues in American health care. https://petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/2025/05/22/the-global-risks-of-americas-most-favored-nation-drug-pricing-policy/Comment publication date: 6/23/25, 7:47 AMComment source: L E T T E R TO THE EDITOR
