Golf team takes 3rd at tourney

The Pioneer golf team brought home a third-place finish from the Willowbrook High School Invitational Wednesday, finishing 22 strokes behind the tourney winners.

Warren County turned in a team score of 311 in the boys-only event, which was won by District 7-AAA foe Riverdale, which also won last week’s Business Roundtable tournament at the McMinnville Country Club.

The Warriors shot a team score of 289, while Chattanooga Christian was second after shooting a 307.

Individual scores for the Pioneers included a 75 from sophomore Brett Patterson, and a 76 by classmate Austin Fairchild. Slayden Rogers and Brandon Hodges both had 80s, while Will Stern had an 84 which didn’t count toward Warren County’s team total.

The Pioneers and Lady Pioneers are scheduled to take on White County and Oakland Tuesday, at Riverwatch Golf Club in DeKalb County.
