August 18th was a huge day for Elliott County Golf at the All A Region Tournament, and we are incredibly proud of how our entire team performed.
The Boys Take the Region Title: Our Elliott County Lions brought home the win as All A Region Champions and are officially heading to Richmond to represent us at the All A State Tournament. Junior Jaxon Salyers led the pack with an impressive score of 43. Seventh grader Luke Howard was right on his heels with a 44, followed closely by freshman Grady Harper and senior Canaan Arrowood, who both turned in solid rounds of 45. Sophomore Lincoln Sturgill rounded out the squad with a 51. These boys played with relentless grit, heart, and teamwork from the first hole to the last.
The Girls Secure Their Spot at State: Not to be outdone; our Lady Lions put on an absolute clinic on the course, earning two individual spots at the All A State Tournament in Richmond. Freshman Maryn Sturgill blew past the competition to take 1st place overall with a stellar score of 45, showcasing incredible focus and control. Junior Mia West delivered a clutch performance of her own, firing a 52 to secure 2nd place individually. Both Maryn and Mia showed unbelievable poise under pressure, proving that the future of our girls' golf program is bright, relentless, and ready for the big stage.
Congratulations to all of our golfers on an incredible showing at the All A Region Tournament. Let’s go, Lions!
