The Eastern Sectional of the District Six Golf Tournament was held at the State College Elks Country Club on Monday.
\nBoth Tyrone and Bellwood-Antis were among the schools included in the Eastern Section.
\nJimmy Gillam of Tyrone was the only local golfer to qualify for next Monday\u2019s District Six Tournament at the Toftrees Country Club in State College. Robby Walizer of State College and Mike Braniff of BEA shared medalist honors with low scores of 77.
\nJimmy just got in under the cutoff by shooting an 86 on the cold, windswept course. Tyrone teammates Thad Westley (87), Matt Germino (89), Derrick Soellner (90) and Brandon Hribik (90) just missed the cutoff of 86.
\n\u201cI thought Jimmy did well, but I was kind of surprised,\u201d said Tyrone coach Jim Gillam. \u201cActually I though he would have a tough time, with the cold and windy weather making it a longer course than it actually is. I was a little disappointed. I thought Matt and Thad would also be able to qualify.\u201d
\n No Blue Devil golfer was able to qualify for the Districts. Bellwood-Antis golfer Brent Hughes shot a 90 to lead the Blue Devils. Chris Skibo had a 99 and Ryan Kenawell carded a 105.
\n\u201cWe didn\u2019t have anyone place this year,\u201d said Bellwood-Antis coach Greg Perry. \u201cWith the little amount of experience we have this year, I really wasn\u2019t expecting to get anybody through to the districts.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
