The DCHS Girls’ Golf Team completed a perfect 15-0 regular season by defeating Upperman by 14 strokes on Thursday at Baxter.
The Lady Tigers were led by Chloe Boyd’s 39 and Emily Anderson 42 scores. The team consists of Junior Alison Poss, Sophomore Emily Anderson, and Freshman Chloe Boyd. Poss and Boyd were selected as All-District performers this year.
“I am so proud of our Lady Tigers,” said DCHS Head Golf Coach John Pryor. “Alison Poss is our veteran leader and we can count on her every time she plays. Chloe Boyd is a machine and works so hard, her effort is outstanding. Emily Anderson had some midseason struggles, but I have been so impressed by the work she has put in to rediscover her game. She is playing really well right now. Next week, on Monday, we have the District Tournament in Cookeville, followed by the Region Tournament on October 2 at Tim’s Ford. That is where these incredible young ladies will make their bid to go to the State Tournament on October 9 and 10th in Sevierville,” said Pryor.
Meanwhile the boys golf team finished the regular season 16-11.
“The Tigers have been led all year by Senior Brayden Summers, and Sophomores Brad Hale and Will Blair,” said Pryor. “They, along with Freshman Abram Koegler and Sophomore Jamison Troncoso will play in the District Tournament and try to punch their ticket to the Region”
“This is the best boys team I have had in my eight years as coach,” Pryor continued. “We have a good chance to finish in the top three in the District Tournament which would get us into the Region. The boys need to play well and I know they can do it”.
