Co-Lin golfers finish fourth in MACCC Event #1
RAYMOND – The Co-Lin golf team finished in fourth place in the Mississippi Community College Conference (MACCC) Event #1 hosted by Hinds Community College at Eagle Ridge Country Club in Raymond. The Wolves, who started the day in fifth place, finished with a two-day total of 616.
"The course played pretty tough," said golf coach Allen Kent. "We weren't satisfied with fourth, we know we are capable of playing better. It was good to get this first event under our belts and give our freshmen some experience. We are looking forward to the next event in Amory next week. Alex and Ty played well, didn't quite score as good as they should have. We need the rest of the team to step up and cut out the mental mistakes."
Meridian won the tournament with a 578 followed by Mississippi Gulf Coast at 583, Northeast Mississippi 592, Co-Lin at 616, Hinds and Itawamba 630, East Central at 635, and Southwest 683.
Individually for the Wolf Pack, Alex Navarro (Valencia, Spain) and Ty Nelson (Monticello) tied for 11th place with a two-day total of 149, Tanner Harrison (Brandon) 157, Jordan Davis (Jackson) 163, and Chandler Byrd (Wesson) 164.
Next Up: The Wolf Pack will travel to Amory for the MACCC Event #2 at River Birch Golf Club on Oct. 4-5.
