BROCK

Warren County’s Andrew Brock came away with a share of the overall top honors Monday, while leading his Pioneer teammates to a fourth-place finish at the Bruin Invitational.

Playing at the Old Natchez Country Club in Franklin, Brock carded a score of 70, good enough to tie for first place individually.

As a team, the Pioneers shot a 302, finishing tied for fourth place with Brentwood Academy. Montgomery Bell Academy won the event with a 289, while Franklin High School was second with a 295 and Father Ryan took third at 299 in the 16-team event.

Grant Bullen had a strong outing for the Pioneers, turning in a 73, which tied for eighth place overall. Cody Durham had a 79, while Josh Eckart and Brandon Hodges each had an 80. Only one of the two 80’s was counted toward the team score.

The Lady Pioneers sent two representatives to the match, with Tori Ritz firing an 87 and Lara Lynn Bullen adding a 108 for a team total of 195. Their score was good enough to take eighth place out of the 13-team field.

WCHS is scheduled to return to action Thursday, playing host to district foes Blackman and Siegel at the McMinnville Country Club.
