The Lady Raiders shot an impressive 150 as a team only to finish three strokes behind tournament winner Walker Valley. Sophie Vinson and Savannah Quick each fired a 75 to lead Coffee County to a 2nd place finish in the field of 9. The finish is the first tournament loss for the Lady Raiders this season.

The Red Raiders played their best round of the season with shooting a 296 to claim a 3rd place finish out of 16 boys teams. Freshman Austin Farris had his best round of his high school career with the 71 while junior John Parigger shot a 73. Senior Hayden Proffitt carded a 75 and sophomore Reid Lawrence came in at 77. Walker valley won the tournament with an impressive 281 and Cookeville finished second with a 284. The 296 score for Coffee County is the second lowest round in the school history.
Coffee County returns to the links later this week as the Red Raiders will travel to Sewanee to take on Grundy County on Thursday in a boys only match. That match will tee off at 4:00 PM. The Lady Raiders will be in action this weekend in Crossville at the Golf Capital Tournament. The Saturday/Sunday tournament tees off at 8:00 AM each day.
