CHS golf programs finish top ten at state championships

Boys and girls golf finished their seasons last week, rounding the season with top-ten finishes. The Trojan girls played at Sunset Country Club in Moultrie, and after the decision to play only one round due to the weather, the team finished 5th overall. Adeline Laney shot 4-over par (76) and tied 8th individually to pace the Lady Trojans. At Kinderlou Forest Golf Club in Valdosta, the Trojan boys finished 9th in the championship match. Despite poor weather conditions, Luke Able shot 3-under par (141) for the two-day event, finishing as the 7A state runner-up for the Trojans. Able shot a postseason record of 7-under par (65) in round one and broke the single-season Carrollton scoring record of 73.33. Edward Fleck set a freshman scoring record with an average of 77.94 for the season.
