Floyd County took this week’s Class 2 Region C golf title with a score of 331 and will advance to the state tournament later this month as the lone team from the region while Radford High’s Trevor Price will move on to the state tournament as the region’s co-medalist.
Auburn’s Caleb Wallace also qualified for the state meet by finishing third in the Region 1C championship.
Price and Chatham’s Matt Arnold each shot 3-over-par 75’s at the region championship at the Pete Dye River Course in Radford to finish as medalists.
Floyd finished three-strokes ahead of Giles for the team win. Patrick County was third and Radford finished fourth.
The Bobcats were led by Price’s 75. Other team scores were Jack Davis 81; Brody Shull 90; Graham Minarik 94; Lucas Beeler 95; and Parker Prioleau 97.
George Wythe claimed the Mt. Empire District golf title earlier in the week with a 287 with Galax second (370) and Auburn third (375). GW also won the Region 1C title Tuesday at the Pete Dye River Course.
