The Golf Team squeezed by Midland Trail in the Regional Tournament at the Briar Patch in Beckley on September 29, 2008 to take a seed in the State Tournament on October 7 and 8. in Wheeling at Jones Course. Fayetteville took top seed with a score of 403 while Pocahontas scored 412 and Midland scored 413 in the regional match. Senior Aaron Totten placed second in individual standings. Team members: Aaron, Ernie, Gabrielle, Jairus, Reid, Sarah, Coy, Brandon, Zach, Logan, and Tim were surprised at their success. When asked by this reporter which course they enjoyed playing, Aaron said, "The Greenbrier was the nicest course." Ernie commented that he thought The Raven was the most challenging.
Ernie described his teammate Aaron as the most likely golfer on the team to score a hole in one, and he described himself as a good recovery guy who knew how to play out of the woods. We wish our golfers many holes in one and a very successful experience at the State Tournament.
