What a great experience this first state championship has been for the team. No doubt this trip has been a way for all of us to learn something about ourselves and the game of golf in some way or another. Today was just one of those pills you have to swallow in order to learn how much you really want to win. All of us got eaten up by the course today at some point today. A few times we were able to fight back against the course, but these times were well outnumbered by the times the course just didn't let up. We are all disappointed in our 3rd place finish behind Cape Fear Christian and Kerr-Vance (congrats to KVA and Beau Cutts for a great week). Still, this experience just adds fuel to the fire for many of us to get back to the practice range and get better. Although some people would give up after a tough two days like these two, our guys aren't quitters and we can't wait to put ourselves in a position to win next year. We kept our heads held high and acted like gentlemen, and for that we are winners. The scores for both days are below for all the players:
Matt Bonner: 49-45:94
48-42:90
Evan Norfleet: 47-43:90
45-47:92
Weldon Walker (made all-state team): 41-41:82
43-39:82
Ross Seaman: 43-45:88
43-43:86
Matt Dengler: 42-46:88
45-47:92
Todd Eckstein (made all-state team): 38-40:78
38-39:77
Later tonight or tomorrow I will have pictures up from the trip. Keep following this blog to find results from tournaments the guys are playing in over the summer. Thanks for taking an interest in us!
