The high school golf season has entered the final two weeks of the
regular season with the Allen County-Scottsville golf team turning their
attention toward the regional tournament. Last weekend, the AC-S five-some of
Owen Stamper, Bryson Bonds, Tanner McPeak, Peyton Cline, and Tyler Ford placed
third in the prestigious Glasgow invitational at the Willow Oaks Country Club.
Eight of the 15 participating schools will play in the Region 3 tournament on
October 1 at Hidden Hills Country Club in Tompkinsville.
Stamper carded a one-under par round of 70 on the course in Glasgow to place third individually with a 70. The tournament was won by Bowling Green senior Collier Curd who fired a four-under-par round of 67. Curd’s teammate Clark McDougal was fifth while Bowling Green’s Charlie Reber tied for sixth---helping the Purples to claim the team title with a score of 289.
Bryson
Bonds shot a five-over-par round of 76 to tie for tenth in the field. Tanner McPeak
shot an 80, Peyton Cline had an 81, and Tyler Ford had an 86 to complete the
scoring for the Patriots.
Saturday’s event marked the conclusion of designated events in which teams could play with their results counting toward inclusion in the first Kentucky Golf Coaches Association All-State tournament this weekend in Lexington. As a team, AC-S did not finish in the top 15 to qualify for the championship. However, Stamper finished among the top 20 golfers not on a qualifying team, thus earning an individual invitation to the event.
Saturday’s results capped a week in which the Patriots also defeated the Falcons from Monroe County. Playing in Tompkinsville on Tuesday, Owen Stamper and Rafe Blankenship carded rounds of 35, McPeak, Cline, and Cline shot 39’s, and Bonds notched a 42, Joshua Sikes shot a 43, and Eli Stamper shot a 51. Overall, AC-S defeated Monroe County 148-162.
Lady
Patriot golfers Aly Miller and Emma Cline played last Thursday in the District
Golf Tournament at the Scottsville Country Club. Miller shot a 49 while Cline
had a 50 on the course. The pair of Lady Patriots will be in Region 4 golf
action on Monday, September 30 at Crosswinds in Bowling Green.
