awk question

Trying to parse data with three columns. The 2nd and 3rd columns are not constant and there is a data stamp. Tried a few iterations of awk but can't seem to get the desired output.

This is the format:
Code:
entry1 2017-12-12 some_text
entry1 2017-12-13 some_text
entry1 2017-12-18 some_text
entry2 2017-12-10 some_text
entry3 2017-12-08 some_text
entry3 2017-12-04 some_text

This is the desired output (trying to get one entry with the latest date):
Code:
entry1 2017-12-18 some_text
entry2 2017-12-10 some_text
entry3 2017-12-08 some_text

Any help is appreciated.
