Charlotte 49ers sophomore Andy Sajevic won the Nebraska State Amateur title Thursday, defeating Ryan Nietfeldt by two shots. Paired with Nietfeldt in the final round, Sajevic overcame a five-shot deficit with 16 holes to play with his 2-under-par 69.
This is the second state title the Sajevic family has won, as Andy's father John won the event in 1989-and finished tied for third this year. Sajevic also won the Nebraska Junior Amateur in 2009 as well as the Nebraska Junior Match Play title. He placed 7th in the Nebraska Amateur last year.
