The MUS varsity golf team will be heading into state-tournament action with critical momentum as they easily claimed the Division II West Regional Tournament title, held yesterday at Orgill in Millington.
The Owls won their eleventh regional championship with surprising ease as they shot 292, besting ECS (305) and CBHS (307), two squads that had defeated MUS in the regular season.
Coach Greg King’s squad was led by medalist Bobby Hudson, who shot 68, a score that also earned him All-Tournament honors. Senior Alex Synder (73), who finished fourth, and freshman Drew Frisby (75), who claimed fifth, also made the All-Tournament team.
Rounding out the fine team effort were senior Bowers Clement (77) and junior Daniel Brown (80).
With an 18-4 regular season and the regional title, MUS will look to better their runner-up state finish from last season at the 2005 State Tournament, to be held October 18 and 19 at Ross Creek Landing in Clifton, TN.
Congratulations and good luck to these young men.
