Quitman boy’s golf team wins district tournament
The Quitman boys' golf team won the District 17 2A tournament. Their first day team total at Lake Fork Golf Course was 329, and their second day total at Van Zandt Country Club was 337. Their two-day total of 666 put them 116 strokes ahead of Alba- Golden, who took second with a total of 782.
After the first day, Connor Whorff of Winnsboro led the tournament with a 76. Both Blake Thurman and Jeremy Bates of Quitman tied for second by shooting 78. On a very windy second day, Whorff battled to post a 78. On the final hole, Thurman made a 13 foot par putt to finish with a 75, making him the District champion by 1 stroke. The top three finishers were Thurman (78-75, 153), Whorff (76-78, 154), and Bates (78-82, 160). The rest of the Bulldogs were George Sinopoli (82-86, 168), Clayton Rhodes (91-94, 185), and River Asmussen (104-102, 206).
Quitman competes in the Regional tournament at Oak Hurst in Bullard on April 14th-15th.
"I am constantly amazed at what these young men accomplish on the course, and I am just as impressed with how well they represent themselves, their families, their school, and their community," Quitman golf coach James Warren said.
