The golf team suffered a disappointing loss at the region tournament April 27 at Fields Ferry. This eliminated the Tigers from state playoffs this season.
The Tigers qualified for the region tournament by placing second in the sub-region. They finished top in the Floyd county area and won the prestigious Rome/Floyd County tournament.
“Andy Gates was the most improved player of the year, and he will be the nucleus around which nest year’s team will be built,” Coach Raymond Murray said. “He and Frank Stegall, Tilman Raybon, Sean Watford, and Tom Arnold are the members of the team returning for next year.” Murray said that Joe Holmes, Ben Bagley, and Evan Swedish also made significant contributions to this year’s team.
